FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is ideal for formal occasions such as weddings, races, evening galas, formal dinners, and graduations.

How should I accessorize this dress?

Given the dress's statement hem and clean neckline, consider pairing it with statement earrings and sleek heels. A clutch bag and a tailored blazer or pashmina for cooler evenings would also complement the look.

What is the best way to clean the dress?

To preserve the fabric and structure, professional dry cleaning is recommended. Avoid machine washing, bleaching, or tumble drying.

Does the dress run true to size?

The dress is designed with a structured fit. It is recommended to consult the brand's specific size chart and measure yourself carefully before purchasing to ensure the best fit for a UK size 8.

Can the dipped ruffle hem be altered?

While alterations are possible, modifying the distinctive dipped ruffle hem may significantly alter the dress's intended architectural design. Consult a professional tailor for advice.

What is the material of the dress?

The dress is made from a scuba woven polyester material, which provides structure and a smooth finish.

Is the dress lined?

Yes, the dress is fully lined for comfort and a smooth drape against the skin.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased upon arrival.

Hang the dress immediately and allow it to settle. If creases persist, consult a professional dry cleaner for steaming or press on a very low heat setting on the reverse side.

Fit is not as expected.

Refer to the size guide for accurate measurements. Consider consulting a tailor for alterations to achieve a personalized fit, especially around the bodice.

Fabric feels stiff.

The scuba woven material is designed to be structured. This stiffness contributes to the architectural silhouette. It will soften slightly with wear but is intended to hold its form.
