FAQs

What material is the Carolina dress made of?

The version discussed here is crafted from 100% cotton, though other variants in the Rixo Carolina range may be made of silk velvet.

Is the dress true to size?

The dress is designed with a bias cut, which offers a flexible fit. It is recommended to follow the standard UK 12 sizing provided.

Can this dress be machine washed?

Due to the delicate lace inserts, machine washing is not recommended. Hand washing in cold water or professional dry cleaning is preferred.

Does the dress have pockets?

No, this design focuses on a streamlined silhouette and does not include pockets.

What is the best way to iron this dress?

Always iron on the reverse side, using a low heat setting, and avoid applying direct heat to the lace trim or embroidery.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or stuck

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the teeth and gently rub a pencil lead or a small amount of clear wax along the zipper teeth.

Fabric wrinkling

Use a steamer on a low setting or iron on the reverse side while the fabric is slightly damp to avoid damaging the lace.

Lace snagging

Check that jewelry or bag straps do not have sharp edges that could catch the delicate embroidery.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated aesthetic perfect for evening events
  • Flattering bias cut suitable for various body types
  • High-quality embroidery and lace detailing
  • Breathable cotton construction

Cons

  • Requires delicate maintenance due to lace inserts
  • Cotton material may require frequent ironing
  • Limited stretch compared to synthetic blends

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the Carolina dress features delicate lace inserts and embroidery, it is essential to handle the garment with care. To maintain the integrity of the material, dry cleaning or a gentle cold hand wash is recommended. Always turn the dress inside out before washing to protect the exterior lace and embroidery from snagging. For storage, use a padded hanger to prevent the weight of the fabric from distorting the bias cut. Keep the concealed side zipper closed when storing to ensure the zipper track remains aligned.
