FAQs

Can I machine wash this dress?

No, this dress is strictly dry clean only due to the delicate embellishments and velvet material.

Is the material stretchy?

The dress is made of polyester which provides a structured fit; it is recommended to check the specific UK size guidelines for the best fit.

What is the best way to store this dress?

Store hanging in a breathable garment bag, ensuring the bow details are not compressed.

Can the back slit be altered?

While it can be altered, it is recommended to take the garment to a professional tailor to ensure the integrity of the hemline.

What kind of undergarments work best?

Given the tailored silhouette, seamless or shapewear undergarments are recommended for a smooth finish.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty with the back zipper

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the track and pull the zipper slowly; use a small amount of wax if the track feels stiff.

Wrinkles in the velvet fabric

Do not iron directly; use a professional garment steamer from a distance or bring to a dry cleaner for steaming.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the dress retains its appearance, it is imperative to follow professional care instructions. As the garment is made of velvet, it is strictly dry clean only. When storing, it is recommended to keep the dress in a garment bag away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading or damage to the embellishments. Due to the buttoned and zipped back design, it may be easier to have assistance when fastening the dress to avoid straining the fabric or the zipper components.
