Is this dress suitable for very hot weather?
Yes, the 100% cotton fabric is breathable and lightweight, making it a good choice for warm or hot weather.
Can the ruffled hem be ironed?
Yes, the ruffled hem can be ironed on a low setting. It's advisable to iron it while the fabric is slightly damp or use a pressing cloth for protection.
What is the general silhouette of the Marcelette model?

Are there other sizes or colors available?

Troubleshooting
Dress appears to have shrunk after washing.
Ensure you followed the cold water and gentle cycle instructions. For future washes, consider hand washing or a more delicate setting. Avoid high heat in drying.
Color seems to fade.
Wash the dress inside out in cold water and use a detergent designed for colored fabrics. Minimize direct sunlight exposure when drying.
Smocking detail has lost its elasticity.
