FAQs
Is this dress true to size?
The dress is specifically cut for petite proportions. It is recommended to consult the size guide to ensure the UK size 14 aligns with your specific measurements.
Can I machine wash this dress?
No, the satin fabric is delicate and should be professionally dry cleaned only.
What shoes look best with this style?
Strappy heeled mules or pointed-toe pumps complement the architectural lines of the dress perfectly.
Is the fabric prone to wrinkling?
Satin can wrinkle if packed tightly; however, it generally maintains its structure well when hung correctly.
Does the dress have a lining?
The dress is designed with a high-quality finish intended for formal wear, ensuring opacity and a smooth drape.
Troubleshooting
Wrinkles in the fabric
Use a low-heat garment steamer from a distance to gently release creases, avoiding direct contact with the satin.
Static cling
Use a light anti-static spray on the interior of the lining or apply a small amount of lotion to your skin before dressing.
Small snags in the satin
Do not pull at the fabric. Take the garment to a professional tailor or dry cleaner who specializes in delicate formal wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this garment is made of premium satin, it is essential to follow specific care instructions to maintain its integrity. Due to the delicate nature of the fabric, dry cleaning is strongly recommended to prevent water spots, stretching, or loss of luster. Before wearing, ensure you check for any pulls in the satin. When storing, keep the dress hanging in a breathable garment bag to avoid creases or snags from other jewelry or items in your closet. The dress pairs best with seamless undergarments due to the fluid, draping nature of the fabric.
