FAQs

What occasions is this dress best suited for?

This dress is ideal for elevated occasions such as garden parties, summer weddings, al fresco dinners, race days, and smart lunches. Its sophisticated design makes it suitable for both daytime and evening events.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the brand's specific size guide for accurate measurements. Pay attention to bust, waist, and hip measurements, as well as the dress length.

Can this dress be worn in very hot weather?

Yes, the viscose-linen blend is breathable and comfortable for warmer temperatures. The midi length offers coverage while remaining suitable for heat.

What type of undergarments should I wear with the square neckline?

A strapless bra or a bra with carefully selected straps that complement the neckline would be suitable. The structured neckline offers some support.

How should I care for the woven fabric?

It is recommended to hand wash or dry clean the dress to preserve the texture and drape of the viscose-linen blend. Avoid harsh machine washing or high heat drying.

Can the tie straps be adjusted?

Yes, the tie straps are designed to be tied by the wearer, allowing for a customized fit at the shoulders.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after storage.

Gently steam the dress on a low setting or hang it in a steamy bathroom for a short period. For persistent creases, iron on a low heat with a pressing cloth.

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are following the recommended care instructions (hand wash or dry clean). A gentle steam or professional pressing can help restore the fabric's drape.

Tie straps are uneven.

Adjust the ties at the shoulders to ensure they are even and secure. They are designed to be tied by the wearer.

Dress does not drape as expected.

Ensure the dress is hung correctly. The viscose-linen blend will naturally drape, but try wearing it for a short period to allow the fabric to settle.
