Does the dress run true to size?

Can I wear this dress to a formal event?
While versatile, its `bodycon silhouette` and `animal print` typically position it for smart-casual or semi-formal occasions rather than highly formal events. Your choice of accessories and footwear can help elevate or casualize the look.
How should I store this dress to maintain its shape?

Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after washing.
Viscose blends can sometimes wrinkle. To minimize this, hang the dress immediately after washing to air dry. If wrinkles persist, iron on a low setting while the fabric is slightly damp, or use a steamer. Store on a hanger.
Dress feels too tight or too loose despite being my usual size.
While designed to be `true to size`, fit can vary slightly based on personal body shape and preference. Ensure you selected your standard UK size. If the fit is consistently uncomfortable, consider if a different size might offer a better fit, or if a bodycon style isn't your preferred comfort level.
Fabric shows signs of pilling or small lint balls.
Pilling can occasionally occur with viscose blends due to friction. To remove pills, gently use a fabric shaver or a de-fuzzer. To prevent future pilling, wash the dress inside out on a gentle cycle to minimize friction during the wash, and avoid harsh rubbing during wear or washing.

Care Instructions
To ensure your Dusk Animal Print Midi Stretch Dress remains in excellent condition and maintains its shape and color:
- Machine Washable: Always refer to the care label, but generally, this dress can be machine washed.
- Temperature: Use cool or lukewarm water (typically 30°C or cold wash cycle) to prevent shrinkage or damage to the Viscose and Elastane blend.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent suitable for delicate fabrics.
- Washing Cycle: Wash on a gentle or delicate cycle to protect the fabric's integrity and print.
- Drying: Hang to air dry or lay flat on a clean surface. Avoid high heat in a tumble dryer, which can damage the elastane and lead to shrinkage or loss of shape. Direct sunlight for prolonged periods can also fade the print.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting, preferably inside out, to protect the print and the fabric fibers. Use a pressing cloth if you are concerned about direct heat.
- Storage: Store the dress on a hanger to prevent creases and help maintain its `figure-enhancing bodycon silhouette`.
