FAQs
Is this dress suitable for a formal church wedding?
Yes, its modest round neckline and midi length make it an appropriate and elegant choice for church or religious ceremonies.
Can I machine wash this dress?
No. Due to the delicate nature of satin, professional dry cleaning is necessary to maintain the fabric's sheen and structure.
What length is the dress exactly?
The dress is designed with a midi length of approximately 122cm.
Does the dress have pockets?
Yes, it features two patch pockets at the hips, providing an architectural and functional detail.
Is the dress stretchy?
The dress is crafted for a tailored fit with a lining that holds its shape, so it does not offer the significant stretch found in jersey or knit fabrics.
Troubleshooting
Visible wrinkles in the fabric
Gently steam the garment from a distance. Do not apply high-heat ironing directly to the satin surface.
Dress fit feels loose or tight
Because this is a tailored garment, consult a professional tailor to adjust the seams for your specific body measurements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep the satin fabric in pristine condition, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended. Avoid contact with rough surfaces to prevent snagging the satin finish. When storing, hang the dress in a breathable garment bag to avoid dust accumulation and pressure marks on the fabric. If slight creasing occurs from storage, use a low-heat steamer held at a distance, rather than a direct iron, to protect the integrity of the satin fibers.
