Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This overskirt is designed to be worn over a pre-existing bridal gown. It typically fastens securely at the waist or hips, often with hidden closures or ties integrated into the wrap design. Ensure the overskirt is positioned correctly to achieve the desired drape and train length over your chosen base dress.
Compatibility:
The overskirt is most effective when paired with simpler, more fitted bridal gowns (e.g., sheath, A-line, mermaid styles) that can support the volume and structure of the overskirt without looking overwhelmed. It is designed for adult wear and specifically tailored for a UK size 10.
Care:
Given the luxurious satin material, careful handling is essential.
- Spot Clean: For minor marks, gently spot clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Professional Cleaning: For overall cleaning or significant stains, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to preserve the fabric's integrity and sheen.
- Storage: Store the overskirt folded carefully in a breathable garment bag to protect it from dust and snagging. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade the color.
