FAQs

What is the best occasion to wear this dress?

This dress is ideal for formal events, evening parties, weddings, or any occasion where elegant and sophisticated attire is appropriate.

How should I determine my size if I'm between sizes?

Given the specific fit and drape of this dress, it is recommended to consult the brand's detailed size chart if available, or consider the specific measurements for a UK size 6. As this is a specific size, try-on is advisable if possible.

Can this dress be altered?

Minor alterations might be possible by a professional tailor, but significant changes to the fabric or silhouette should be approached with caution due to the material and construction.

What kind of undergarments should I wear?

Consider seamless undergarments in a nude or white shade to maintain a smooth silhouette under the viscose fabric. A plunge bra or strapless bra may be suitable depending on the exact neckline coverage of the mockneck.

Is the white color see-through?

While 100% viscose can sometimes have a slight translucency, the density of the weave and the nature of jersey fabric often mitigate this. However, using appropriate undergarments is always recommended.

Where was this dress made?

This dress is made in Italy, reflecting a commitment to high-quality manufacturing.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after storage

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or consult a specialist cleaner for professional steaming.

Fabric feels stiff or loses its sheen

This can sometimes happen with viscose if improperly cleaned. Ensure you adhere strictly to specialist dry cleaning instructions.

Zipper is difficult to move

Gently try to ease the zipper. Avoid forcing it. If it persists, seek assistance from a tailor or dry cleaner.
