FAQs

Is this dress suitable for taller individuals?

This specific variant is designed with petite proportions, meaning the hem length and waist-to-shoulder ratio are tailored for a shorter frame.

Can I machine wash this dress?

Due to the delicate glass crystal trim, machine washing is not recommended; dry cleaning is the safest option.

Does the fabric have any stretch?

The dress uses a woven fabric construction, which provides a structured look, though it does not feature significant stretch.

What type of shoes pair best with this dress?

Strappy sandals or block heels work best to complement the elegant, flowing silhouette and the front split.

Are the crystal trims removable?

No, the crystal trim is a permanent decorative feature integrated into the neckline and waist.

Troubleshooting

Pleats losing their crispness

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes to allow the fibers to relax, then ensure it is hung straight in a closet.

Crystal trim appears dull

Gently buff the crystals with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust or perfume residue.

Wrinkles in the fabric

Use a handheld steamer on a low heat setting, keeping it away from the crystal trim, or take it to a professional cleaner.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep this garment in peak condition, store it hanging in a cool, dry place to prevent the pleats from losing their shape. Due to the delicate glass crystal trim, it is highly recommended to avoid machine washing. Instead, opt for professional dry cleaning or careful spot cleaning. If the dress must be steamed, keep the steamer at a safe distance from the crystal elements to prevent clouding or damage. When traveling, ensure the dress is packed carefully or stored in a garment bag to keep the pleats aligned.
