Product Information
Full details
The Yours Cape Dress is designed for adult women seeking an elegant, figure-flattering option for formal events such as weddings or evening galas. This maxi-length garment provides a sophisticated silhouette with its unique cape-style design, offering comfortable coverage and a timeless look. While the flowing cape style provides excellent drape, users should note that the loose fit requires careful attention when pairing with accessories to avoid cluttering the visual lines of the dress.

FAQs
Is this dress suitable for a formal wedding?
Yes, the maxi length and sophisticated cape design make it an excellent choice for wedding guests seeking a formal and elegant look.
What type of shoes should I wear with this?
Strappy heels or embellished block heels work best to balance the length of the dress and add a touch of glamour.
Can I wear a cardigan or blazer over the cape?
Due to the cape construction, wearing a blazer over it may look bulky. We suggest wearing a pashmina or shawl if extra warmth is needed.
How do I ensure the fit is correct for my size?
The dress is designed as a UK size 18. We recommend checking your measurements against our standard sizing guide to ensure the best fit across the bust and shoulders.
Is the fabric machine washable?
While the fabric is durable, we recommend a gentle hand wash to protect the cape's silhouette and ensure the long-term quality of the garment.
Troubleshooting
Wrinkles in the cape fabric
Use a handheld garment steamer from a safe distance of at least 6 inches to gently remove creases without damaging the fabric fibers.
Static cling affecting the drape
Lightly mist the inner lining with a fabric-safe anti-static spray or run a wire hanger along the interior surface before wearing.
Minor snag on the cape overlay
Do not pull the thread; use a small embroidery needle to gently push the snag back through to the inside of the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Yours Cape Dress in excellent condition, always follow the care label instructions sewn into the inner seam. Because of the delicate cape construction, it is recommended to hand wash in cold water or use the gentle cycle on your washing machine inside a garment bag. Avoid tumble drying; instead, hang the dress to air dry on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the shape of the cape and the drape of the skirt. For storage, hang the dress in a breathable garment bag to protect it from dust and snagging on other items in your closet. Avoid using heavy steam directly on the cape fabric, as it may cause loss of structure.
