What is the best way to clean this dress?
Due to the delicate satin material, professional dry cleaning is the recommended method to maintain the quality and shape of the garment.
Does the dress have a built-in bra?
The dress does not include a built-in bra. It is recommended to wear a strapless or convertible bra that complements the Bardot neckline.
Can the length be altered?
Yes, if the floor-sweeping length is too long, a professional tailor can easily hem the satin material to your preferred length.
What material is this dress made from?
The dress is crafted from high-quality satin, known for its smooth texture and elegant drape.
Does the waist ruching provide stretch?
The ruching is primarily a design element to create a flattering silhouette, though the nature of the construction offers slight flexibility while maintaining a structured fit.
Troubleshooting
Dress has static cling
Lightly mist the inside of the garment with a specialized anti-static spray or use a light touch of fabric softener on your hands before smoothing the material.
Wrinkles in the satin
Use a handheld steamer on a low, delicate setting. Keep the steamer nozzle at least 6 inches away from the fabric to avoid water spots.
Off-shoulder neckline slipping
Use garment-safe fashion tape to secure the inner lining of the neckline to your undergarments for extra stability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before wearing, ensure the dress is steamed on a low setting to remove any wrinkles from storage, as the satin fabric can be sensitive to high heat. Given the formal nature of the garment, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to preserve the material's drape and sheen. Store the dress hanging in a garment bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading or fabric snags from jewelry. When dressing, be mindful of sharp accessories like rings or bracelets that could catch on the delicate satin fibers.
