FAQs
How long is the dress?
The dress measures approximately 125cm in length, falling at a standard midi position for most heights.
Can I machine wash this dress?
Due to the intricate knitted construction and draped details, dry cleaning is highly recommended to protect the garment's structure.
Does the fabric have much stretch?
The bandage-style knit offers a firm, sculpted stretch designed to skim the body rather than provide high-mobility athletic stretch.
What is the best way to store this dress?
Store the dress folded in your drawer or on a shelf. Hanging can lead to unintended stretching of the knitted fabric.
Is the neckline symmetrical?
No, the dress features a distinct asymmetric square neckline, which is a key design element.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears to have slight snagging
Do not pull the loose yarn; carefully use a sweater stone or fabric shaver designed for delicate knits.
Visible lines from undergarments
Switch to seamless laser-cut undergarments to create a smooth base layer beneath the form-fitting knit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this dress features a high-performance knit, proper care is essential to maintain its shape. Always store the dress folded on a shelf rather than on a hanger to prevent the weight of the fabric from stretching the shoulders or neckline. When cleaning, check the internal garment tag for specific fiber-content instructions; generally, professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the integrity of the draped waist detail. Ensure you wear seamless undergarments to maintain the clean lines of the asymmetric design.
