Goddiva Off The Shoulder Satin Bow Neck Maxi Dress - Navy - Size: 12

This dress is ideal for formal events such as weddings, black-tie functions, galas, formal parties, and upscale evening occasions where a sophisticated and glamorous look is desired.

The dress is primarily made from a luxurious crepe fabric, with the distinctive bow detail crafted from satin.

To maintain its quality and appearance, it is recommended to dry clean the dress only. Use a cool iron on the reverse side if necessary, and avoid direct heat on the satin bow.

The design is intended to provide a secure and elegant fit. However, as with all off-the-shoulder styles, minor adjustments may be needed throughout wear.

The mermaid hem is designed to offer a dramatic silhouette. While it may provide less freedom of movement than an A-line skirt, it is generally designed to allow for graceful movement for typical event activities.

Given the off-the-shoulder design and fitted silhouette, seamless undergarments are recommended to achieve a smooth look. Consider strapless bras or specialized shapewear if desired.

Yes, like most formal wear, this dress can be altered by a professional tailor to achieve a more personalized fit. However, alterations to the mermaid hem or neckline embellishments should be done with care.

Refer to the specific size chart provided by Goddiva for accurate measurements. Consider the fitted nature of the crepe and the mermaid hem when assessing fit.

Gently steam the bow on a low setting from a distance, or consult a professional dry cleaner for specialized pressing.

For minor snags, professional tailoring or fabric repair may be an option. For significant damage, repair might not be feasible due to the delicate material.
