Featuring a structured, pleated bodice and a voluminous dropped-waist skirt, this piece offers a refined aesthetic ideal for weddings, garden parties, and cocktail events.

The dress measures approximately 130cm, typically falling below the knee.
As it is crafted from poplin, it is a crisp fabric that maintains structure well, though it should be stored carefully to avoid unnecessary creasing.
No, this garment requires professional dry cleaning to protect the pleated construction and fabric finish.
It is an excellent choice for weddings, cocktail events, garden parties, or any occasion requiring a sophisticated, structured look.
The waist is designed with a structured, ruched panel; it is not elasticized, so it relies on the tailored fit for its shape.
The wide, flat straps are integrated into the design for a stable, architectural finish and are not adjustable.
Gently shake the garment and let it hang in a steam-free environment; if the issue persists, consult a professional cleaner to professionally reset the folds.
Ensure the straps are laying flat on the shoulders; if the structure remains restricted, a professional tailor may need to assess the side seams, though structural integrity may be impacted.
To ensure the dress maintains its shape, always store it hanging on a sturdy, non-slip hanger to prevent the pleats from distorting. When considering fit, refer to standard UK sizing; since the piece features a structured bodice, it is recommended to ensure your measurements align with the waist and bust specifications provided. For care, this garment should be professionally dry cleaned to preserve the integrity of the vertical pleating and the crispness of the poplin fabric. Avoid steaming the pleats directly, as this may soften the intended architectural lines.
