FAQs

Is the fabric prone to shrinking?

Because the dress is crafted from cotton and requires dry cleaning, it should not shrink if the care instructions are followed properly.

Can I wear a standard bra with this dress?

The bustier-inspired bodice and square neckline are designed to provide coverage, though a strapless bra is recommended to ensure straps remain hidden.

What is the primary material?

The dress is crafted from a stretch-seersucker cotton blend, which offers both comfort and a structured, refined texture.

Is the dress lined?

Yes, the Aila Midi Dress features a comfortable viscose lining for a smooth fit and added opacity.

How do I determine my size?

This dress follows standard UK sizing. Refer to your typical dress size and ensure the fit allows for the structured nature of the bustier bodice.

Is it suitable for formal events?

The versatile midi length and checkered pattern make it perfect for semi-formal, garden parties, or lunch events, though it may be too casual for black-tie affairs.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is sticking

Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil to the zipper track to lubricate it.

Dress feels too loose at the shoulders

Adjust the length of the shoulder straps using the adjustment hardware until the bodice sits securely against your torso.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Veronica Beard Aila Midi Dress in pristine condition, adhere to the following guidelines:

  1. Handling: When putting the dress on, unzip the back closure fully to avoid straining the seams of the bodice.
  2. Storage: Hang the dress using sturdy, padded hangers to maintain the shape of the wide shoulder straps and the bodice.
  3. Cleaning: This garment is strictly dry clean only. Do not attempt to wash this in a home machine, as the cotton-seersucker may lose its texture or experience significant shrinkage.
  4. Wrinkle Management: Use a professional steamer if necessary, keeping the nozzle at a safe distance to protect the integrity of the fabric texture.
