FAQs

What is the total length of the dress?

The dress has a floor-grazing length of approximately 145cm.

Can I machine wash this satin dress?

No, it is highly recommended to dry clean this dress to maintain the delicate satin texture and structural integrity.

Does the dress have built-in support?

The dress features a fitted bodice and broad, structured shoulder straps designed to offer support and an architectural shape.

Is the dress suitable for black-tie events?

Yes, its sophisticated satin finish and maxi-length silhouette make it an ideal choice for black-tie dress codes.

How should I store the dress?

Store it on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place, ideally inside a garment bag to protect the satin from dust and snags.

What kind of shoes pair best with this dress?

Because of the architectural neckline and fishtail hem, elegant heels such as stilettos or strappy sandals are recommended to complement the elongated silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Visible wrinkles upon arrival

Use a professional garment steamer on a low setting or hang the dress in a steamy bathroom to gently release creases.

Hem dragging on floor

Consult a professional tailor to have the hem professionally shortened to match your specific height and shoe preference.

Fabric snags or pulls

Do not attempt to pull at the snag; take the garment to a professional dry cleaner who may be able to repair delicate satin fibers.

  • Graceful fishtail hem adds fluid movement

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this garment is made of high-quality satin, proper maintenance is essential to preserve the sheen and structural integrity of the fabric. It is recommended to have the dress professionally dry-cleaned to avoid damage to the satin finish or the architectural structure of the bodice. When storing, hang the dress on a padded hanger to ensure the shoulder straps maintain their shape and the fabric remains free of creases. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals or abrasive surfaces that could snag the satin. If you find the dress is too long, we recommend taking it to a professional tailor who specializes in formal wear to ensure the fishtail hem remains perfectly proportioned after adjustment.
