Full details

Crafted from breathable cotton poplin, this dress offers a reliable, relaxed fit through its shirred bodice, making it ideal for warm-weather outings or everyday errands.

FAQs
Is the fabric see-through?
The Matira Dress is crafted from a standard weight cotton poplin designed for opacity; however, wearing skin-tone undergarments is always recommended for light-colored variants.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is not recommended. Heat can damage the elastic in the shirred bodice and cause the cotton fabric to shrink over time.
Does the dress have a zipper?
No, the Matira Dress uses a slip-on design facilitated by the stretchy shirred bodice, making it easy to wear.
What is the length of this dress?
It is a midi-length dress, meaning it typically falls between the knee and the mid-calf depending on your height.
Are the pockets deep enough for a phone?
Yes, the side pockets are designed to be functional and are deep enough to securely hold most modern smartphones.
Is the material stretchy?
Only the shirred bodice area is stretchy. The skirt portion consists of traditional non-stretch cotton poplin.
Troubleshooting
Bodice feels too tight
The shirring is designed to be form-fitting. If it feels restrictive, ensure the dress is pulled evenly around the ribs and avoid machine drying, which can shrink the elastic threads.
Fabric appearing wrinkled
Cotton poplin is prone to natural creasing. Use a light spray of water or a steam setting on your iron to release stubborn wrinkles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Matira Dress looking its best, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle. Using a garment bag can prevent the ruffled straps from snagging on other items in the machine.
- Drying: Air-dry the dress away from direct sunlight to preserve the vibrant colour and prevent the cotton fibers from becoming brittle.
- Ironing: If the dress arrives creased, use a low-heat setting or a garment steamer to smooth out the cotton poplin without damaging the elastication in the bodice.
- Compatibility: This dress is a standard UK size 12 and fits true to size. It pairs best with casual footwear like espadrilles, leather slides, or white canvas sneakers.
