FAQs

What occasions is this dress most suitable for?

This dress is ideal for formal occasions such as weddings, formal dinners, ceremonies, and upscale social events due to its elegant design and sophisticated silhouette.

How should I style this dress for different events?

For formal events, pair with heels and a clutch. For slightly less formal occasions like a gallery opening, consider pointed flats and a blazer or jacket.

Can this dress be worn in different seasons?

The midi length and high neckline make it adaptable. For cooler weather, layering with a tailored jacket or coat is recommended. For warmer weather, the sleeveless design is suitable.

What is the best way to care for this dress?

Professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the fabric's quality and the dress's structure. Avoid machine washing or harsh treatments.

What does 'soft tailored' mean in the product description?

'Soft tailored' suggests a construction that offers structure and a refined fit, characteristic of tailoring, but with a focus on fluidity and comfort rather than stiffness.

Is the dress true to size?

It is recommended to consult the brand's specific size guide and measure yourself to ensure the best fit, as sizing can vary between brands and styles.

What type of undergarments are best with a high neck dress?

Seamless undergarments are generally recommended. Depending on the bust support needed, a strapless bra or a well-fitting bra with smooth straps would be suitable.

Troubleshooting

Dress does not hang correctly

Ensure the dress is steamed or ironed according to care instructions. Check that it is fastened properly and consider if shapewear might enhance the drape.

Colour bleeding or fading

Follow the recommended professional dry cleaning. Avoid harsh detergents or direct sunlight during storage.

Be mindful of accessories or surfaces that could catch the fabric. Store the dress carefully to prevent snags.
