FAQs
What occasions is this dress suitable for?
This dress is ideal for a variety of special occasions, including weddings, dinner parties, formal events, and celebratory gatherings. Its elegant design makes it perfect for when you want to feel dressed up.
What material is the dress made of?
The dress is made from a soft jersey fabric, which is 100% Polyester. This material offers a comfortable drape and is known for its durability and wrinkle resistance.
How should I wash this dress?
We recommend hand washing or machine washing on a delicate cycle with cold water. Always turn the dress inside out and use a mild detergent. Air dry flat or hang on a padded hanger; do not tumble dry.
Does this dress run true to size?
Info needed: It is generally recommended to refer to the brand's specific size guide if available. If unsure, consider checking customer reviews for sizing feedback or trying on your usual size.
Can I wear this dress in different seasons?
Yes, its long sleeves make it suitable for cooler evenings or transitional seasons. For warmer weather, the fabric's lightweight nature can still be comfortable, especially for indoor events. Layer with a light wrap for added warmth if needed.
How can I prevent static cling with this polyester dress?
To prevent static cling, you can use an anti-static spray on the inside of the dress before wearing, or gently rub a dryer sheet over the fabric. Ensuring the dress is fully dry before wearing can also help.
What type of shoes are best to wear with a maxi dress?
Heels are typically recommended to complement the elegant maxi length and enhance the dress's drape. This includes stilettos, block heels, or wedges. Avoid very casual footwear to maintain the sophisticated look.
Troubleshooting
Dress appears creased after storage/travel.
Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for 15-20 minutes, or use a handheld steamer. If ironing, use a very low heat setting with a pressing cloth on the reverse side of the fabric.
Dress feels too long.
Consider wearing higher heels. If still too long for your preferred footwear, consult a professional tailor for hemming. Avoid attempting DIY alterations unless experienced with delicate fabrics.
Fabric has static cling.
Lightly spray the inside of the dress with an anti-static spray. Alternatively, rub a dryer sheet over the inside of the fabric before wearing.
Fabric snags easily.
Be mindful of sharp jewelry, rough surfaces, or bags with embellishments that could catch on the fabric. Store separately from items with zippers or hooks.
Fading color after washing.
Always wash in cold water on a delicate cycle and avoid harsh detergents. Wash with similar colors and turn the dress inside out to protect the outer surface.

First Wear Preparation, Compatibility & Care
First Wear Preparation
Upon receiving your dress, gently unpack it and hang it immediately to allow any creases from packaging to naturally fall out. A light steam can also refresh the fabric before its first wear.
Compatibility

- Accessories: Complement the dress with a clutch bag, subtle necklaces, earrings, and bracelets. A belt can be added to further define the waist, depending on your preference and the dress's fit.
- Outerwear: For cooler weather, a tailored blazer, a chic cardigan, or a formal wrap or pashmina will complete your look stylishly.
Care Instructions
To ensure your Yours London Knot Front Maxi Dress maintains its quality and appearance, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Hand wash or machine wash on a delicate cycle with cold water. Turn the dress inside out to protect the fabric.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent designed for delicate fabrics.
- Drying: Lay flat to dry on a clean, dry surface, or hang on a padded hanger to air dry. Avoid direct sunlight which can cause fading. Do not tumble dry as this can damage polyester fibers and cause shrinkage.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting, preferably on the reverse side, using a pressing cloth to avoid direct heat contact with the fabric. A steamer is often a gentler alternative.
- Storage: Store the dress on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place to prevent creasing and maintain its shape.
