FAQs
Is this dress suitable for cold weather?
Yes, the long sleeves and midi length provide good coverage for autumn. For colder days, it can be styled with tights and a coat.
What is the primary material used?
The dress is crafted from high-quality polyester, chosen for its durability and resistance to wrinkles.
Does the dress include a belt?
Yes, the dress features a self-tie waist belt that allows you to adjust the fit to your preference.
Can I machine wash the Ren dress?
We recommend following the care label attached to the garment. Due to the pleated construction, dry cleaning is often the safest method to maintain the shape.
What is the length of the skirt?
This is a midi-length dress, meaning it typically falls below the knee and mid-calf.
Is the fabric prone to fading?
The fabric is designed for lasting color, but like all garments, it should be kept out of direct, harsh sunlight when stored to maintain the vibrancy of the burgundy color.
Troubleshooting
Pleats losing their definition over time
Avoid folding the dress; always store it hanging vertically. If pleats flatten, consult a professional dry cleaner who can safely steam and reset them.
Static cling occurring during wear
Lightly mist the inside of the fabric with a static guard spray or run a wire hanger along the inner lining before putting the dress on.
Small wrinkles in the polyester fabric
Use a garment steamer on a low-heat setting from a distance of several inches rather than using a direct contact iron to prevent fabric shine or burning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Phase Eight Ren dress, always check the garment label for specific care instructions. Since the skirt is pleated, avoid high-heat tumble drying or aggressive wringing, as these actions can relax the pleats over time. It is recommended to hang the dress on a high-quality hanger immediately after wear to help the fabric breathe and the pleats maintain their sharp fold. For styling compatibility, this dress pairs exceptionally well with fitted outerwear like a trench coat or a cropped wool blazer, which complements the midi length without obscuring the waist detail.
