FAQs

Is the dress true to size?

Yes, it features a regular fit designed to sit comfortably on the frame according to standard sizing specifications.

Can I machine wash this dress?

No, due to the delicate bouclé weave and metallic lurex threads, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended.

Does the material stretch?

As a knit garment, it offers natural flexibility, but avoid over-stretching to maintain the original silhouette.

Are the chain-link straps adjustable?

The straps are designed as a permanent aesthetic feature; they are not adjustable.

What is the primary material used?

The dress is primarily crafted from high-quality cotton, integrated with metallic fibers for the lurex effect.

Troubleshooting

Snagged thread in the knit

Do not cut the thread. Gently use a knitting needle or crochet hook to pull the loop back through to the inside of the garment.

Dull gold hardware

Wipe gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to restore shine, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the distressed finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Elisabetta Franchi knit dress, treat it with the care appropriate for luxury knitwear. Given the metallic lurex and chain-link components, it is recommended to dry clean this garment professionally to protect the finish of the gold-toned hardware and prevent the bouclé knit from pilling or stretching. When not in use, store the dress lying flat in a cool, dry place to prevent the weight of the fabric from distorting the straps. Avoid hanging the garment for long periods, as the heavy knit construction may pull at the shoulders.
