What type of footwear complements this dress?

Troubleshooting
Dress appears creased after unpacking.
This is common with viscose-linen blends. Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period or use a cool iron setting on the reverse side to smooth out creases.
Belt does not sit correctly.
Ensure the belt is threaded through the loops correctly and fastened securely. Adjust the belt to your preferred tightness, ensuring the gold buckle is centered.
Wrap skirt feels too revealing or opens too much.
Consider wearing a slip underneath for added coverage. You can also use a small safety pin on the inside to secure the overlap if needed.
Fabric feels stiff after cleaning.
Ensure you followed the 'dry clean only' instructions precisely. Sometimes, excessive heat during pressing can affect the fabric's softness. Consult a professional dry cleaner if the issue persists.
