FAQs
Is this dress true to size?
The dress is designed as a standard shift silhouette in UK size 18. We recommend comparing your bust, waist, and hip measurements to the Roman size chart for the most accurate fit.
Can I iron this dress?
Velvet should generally not be ironed directly. If wrinkles occur, use a garment steamer on the reverse side of the fabric.
What shoes look best with this dress?
Heels or elegant loafers complement the shift cut well, keeping the look refined for evening events.
Does the velvet fabric stretch?
The dress is designed for comfort, but the velvet fabric is not highly elastic. The shift cut is meant to drape rather than cling.
What is the best way to remove a stain?
Gently blot the area with a clean, damp cloth. Do not rub the fabric, as this can damage the velvet pile and leave a permanent mark.
Troubleshooting
Velvet fabric looks flattened or crushed
Hang the dress in a steamy room for several minutes, allowing the moisture to help the fibers lift, then gently brush with a soft garment brush.
Beads appear loose after washing
Always turn the garment inside out and use a mesh laundry bag to reduce friction against the machine drum and other items.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your velvet dress in top condition, proper care is essential. Although the item is machine washable, turn the dress inside out before washing to protect the beaded neckline and cuffs from snagging. Use a delicate cycle with a mild detergent and wash at a low temperature. Avoid tumble drying; instead, hang the dress on a padded hanger to dry naturally. When storing, ensure it is hung in a garment bag to prevent the velvet pile from being crushed or marked by other clothing items. If the velvet appears slightly flattened upon arrival, hanging it in a steamy bathroom can help the fibers regain their soft texture.
