FAQs

What makes this dress suitable for tall women?

This dress is designed by Long Tall Sally, a brand specializing in tall women's clothing. It features extended lengths in the body, sleeves (if applicable), and hemline to ensure a proper and flattering fit for individuals with taller proportions, typically starting from UK size 8 for those around 5'9" and above.

What is the material of the dress?

The dress is made from a soft and breathable cotton fabric, making it comfortable for wear during warmer seasons.

What is the length of the dress?

The dress is a maxi length, measuring approximately 150cm (or 59 inches) from the shoulder or highest point of the garment.

How should I style this dress for different occasions?

For a casual look, pair it with sneakers or flat sandals. For a more dressed-up occasion, opt for heels or wedges and accessorize with statement jewelry.

Does the contrast swirl pattern appear on both sides of the fabric?

Typically, contrast detailing is applied to the visible outer layer of the fabric. The inside of the dress will likely be the base color without the swirl pattern.

What sizes are available for this dress?

The dress is available in various UK women's sizes. Please check the product listing or size selector for the specific range available, as LTS generally carries sizes from UK 8 to 28.

Can this dress be worn during colder weather?

While the dress is made of cotton and suitable for summer, it can be layered with a cardigan, jacket, or coat for cooler temperatures. Pair with tights and boots for added warmth.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears to have shrunk after washing.

Ensure you are washing in cold water and using a low heat setting for tumble drying, or preferably, line dry. High heat is the most common cause of shrinkage in cotton garments.

Color seems to fade after a few washes.

Wash the garment inside out in cold water with like colors. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach. Consider using a color-catching sheet in the wash.

The fabric feels rough or stiff.

The cotton may require a few washes to soften. Using a fabric softener sparingly during the rinse cycle can help. Ensure the garment is not over-dried.

Stitching appears loose or seams are unraveling.

Gently trim any loose threads with sharp scissors. If the seam is significantly unraveling, contact customer service for potential repair or replacement options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

To maintain the quality and longevity of your dress, please follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors. It is recommended to wash the garment inside out.
  2. Bleaching: Do not bleach the fabric. Chlorine or oxygen-based bleaches can damage the cotton fibers and affect the color.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or opt for line drying to minimize shrinkage and preserve fabric integrity. Remove promptly from the dryer.
  4. Ironing: If needed, iron on a low setting. Avoid ironing directly on any printed or detailed areas if applicable. A cool iron setting is generally recommended for cotton.
  5. Dry Cleaning: This garment is typically not recommended for dry cleaning, as standard washing methods are usually sufficient and gentler on the fabric.
