FAQs
What occasions is this dress suitable for?
This dress is perfect for a night out, cocktail events, dinner parties, or any special occasion where you want to make a chic and sophisticated statement.
What material is the dress made of?
The dress is made from `Polyester`, offering durability and a smooth finish.
Does the dress have pockets?
Yes, it features convenient side pockets, blending style with practicality.
How should I care for this dress?
It is recommended to hand wash or machine wash cold on a delicate cycle, lay flat or hang to dry, and iron on a low heat setting if needed. Always check the garment's specific care label for detailed instructions.
Is the corset functional, or is it decorative?
The dress features a `faux wrap corset-style bodice`, meaning it provides the look and figure-enhancing effect of a corset but is not a functional, adjustable corset.
What kind of neckline and sleeves does it have?
The dress has an off-the-shoulder V-neckline with delicate cap sleeves, designed to highlight your décolletage.
Is the dress true to size?
The dress is designed for a `regular fit`. We recommend consulting the brand's specific size chart to ensure the best fit for your measurements, especially for the `UK 16` size.
Troubleshooting
Dress feels too tight or too loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Check the Goddiva size chart against your current measurements. If the fit is significantly off, consider exchanging for a different size if available.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to close.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, try rubbing a graphite pencil or a dry bar of soap along the teeth to lubricate it.
Fabric appears wrinkled after washing.
Polyester is generally wrinkle-resistant, but if wrinkles occur, iron on a low heat setting from the inside out. A garment steamer can also effectively remove wrinkles without direct contact.
Off-the-shoulder sleeves keep riding up or slipping down.
Adjust the sleeves to sit comfortably on your shoulders. Ensure the garment is correctly sized. A fashion tape could be used sparingly to secure the sleeves to your skin if necessary for a temporary fix.

Product Care
To ensure your Goddiva Corset Fit & Flare Mini Dress retains its elegance and shape, follow these care guidelines:
- Material: Made from `Polyester`.
- Washing: Hand wash cold or machine wash on a delicate cycle with similar colors. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry or hang on a padded hanger to maintain the skirt's flare.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting on the reverse side. Avoid ironing directly on any decorative elements or the faux corset details.
- Storage: Store on a hanger to prevent creasing and preserve the shape of the skirt.
> Info needed: Always refer to the specific care label inside the garment for the most accurate and manufacturer-recommended care instructions.
