Due to the asymmetric one-shoulder design, a strapless, adhesive bra or a specialized convertible bra is recommended to ensure support without visible straps.
The dress is crafted from a woven satin, which typically offers limited stretch; therefore, it is best to refer to the size guide to ensure the fit through the waist and torso is comfortable.
The dress is approximately 143cm in length, designed to reach the floor for most wearers.
It is highly recommended to dry clean this garment to prevent damage to the satin finish and the delicate draped detailing.
Hang the dress on a padded hanger to avoid hanger marks or distortion of the asymmetric neckline, and store in a breathable garment bag.
Use a garment steamer at a low setting or hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for 10-15 minutes to allow wrinkles to release naturally.
Pair with a higher heel for immediate adjustment or take the dress to a professional seamstress to have the hem professionally shortened.
To ensure your dress remains in peak condition, store it on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the draped shoulder. Since the material is a refined satin, avoid contact with sharp jewelry or rough surfaces that could snag the threads. When transporting the dress, place it in a garment bag to prevent creasing. For cleaning, check the interior care label for specific instructions; usually, dry cleaning is the safest method for preserving the sheen and structural integrity of the draped bodice. If the dress is slightly long, consult a professional tailor to adjust the hem while preserving the fluted finish.
