Goddiva Scoop Neck Velvet Satin Cape Sleeve Maxi Dress - Green - 18

This dress is ideal for formal and semi-formal occasions such as weddings, garden parties, evening celebrations, social events, and dinners.

Refer to the brand's specific size guide. It is recommended to take your measurements and compare them with the chart provided by Goddiva, paying attention to bust, waist, and hip measurements.

The cape sleeves are a design feature and are not typically adjustable. They are cut to flow naturally from the shoulders.

Given the scoop neckline and maxi silhouette, standard seamless undergarments are recommended. Consider a strapless bra if preferred, depending on the depth of the scoop.

The velvet and satin combination lends itself well to cooler seasons or indoor events. For warmer weather, the flowing sleeves can still be comfortable, especially for evening events.

Hang the dress on a wide, padded hanger to maintain its shape. Avoid folding, which can crease the fabric. Store in a garment bag to protect it from dust.

Elegant heels, such as stilettos or block heels, in neutral tones like nude, black, or metallics (gold, silver) usually complement this maxi dress. Dressy sandals can also be an option for less formal events.

Ensure the dress is hung correctly on a suitable hanger. Allow it to hang for a day or two after unpacking to let any creases from packaging fall out. For persistent wrinkles, use a steamer on a low setting, keeping it at a distance from the fabric, especially the velvet.

Avoid pressing directly on the velvet with an iron. If minor flattening occurs, try gently steaming the affected area from a distance or brushing the velvet pile carefully with a soft brush in its natural direction.

Please note that screen settings can affect colour representation. If the colour is significantly different than expected, consider if it suits your needs or consult the retailer's return policy.
