FAQs
What type of occasions is this top best suited for?
This top is ideal for formal occasions such as weddings, evening receptions, and other sophisticated events where an elegant and refined look is desired.
How should I care for the embroidered mesh sleeves?
It is recommended to hand wash the top in cold water or use a gentle machine cycle. Lay flat to dry to prevent stretching or damage to the delicate mesh and embroidery. Always check the care label for specific instructions.
Does the top run true to size?
The product description notes that the fit is regular but slightly shorter, and it might run a bit smaller. It is recommended to consider sizing up if you are between sizes or prefer a more relaxed fit.
What can I wear with this top?
The top pairs well with tailored trousers, pencil skirts, and heels for formal occasions. It can also be styled with a structured skirt for daytime events.
Is the mesh fabric see-through?
The mesh sleeves are sheer, designed to showcase the floral embroidery. The bodice is lined for opacity and comfort.
What is the approximate length of the top?
The top has a regular fit with a slightly shorter length, approximately 59cm.
Troubleshooting
Embroidery snagging
Handle with care, avoid sharp objects, and if a thread pulls, gently try to push it back through to the reverse side or trim carefully without cutting surrounding threads.
Mesh stretching or tearing
Avoid excessive stretching when dressing or undressing. Hand wash gently and lay flat to dry, do not hang when wet.
Garment appears too short
Pair with high-waisted trousers or skirts to create a balanced silhouette. Consider sizing up if a longer length is desired, as noted in the product description.
