FAQs

Is this dress suitable for petite frames?

No, this dress is specifically cut and proportioned for taller women 5'8" and above.

Can I machine wash this velvet dress?

It is strongly advised to dry clean this garment to preserve the integrity and texture of the velvet material.

Does the dress stretch?

Velvet typically has a slight give, but it is structured to maintain its shape, so we recommend sticking to your standard UK size.

What is the best way to remove lint from velvet?

Use a dedicated velvet brush or a piece of masking tape lightly patted on the surface to remove lint without damaging the fabric.

Is this appropriate for a black-tie event?

Yes, the elegant silhouette and velvet finish make it a perfect selection for formal and black-tie occasions.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appears crushed or flattened

Use a handheld steamer on the inside of the garment to lift the fibers; do not touch the steamer head directly to the velvet.

Dress feels too long or short

The dress is designed for individuals 5'8" and above; if the hem is slightly off, consult a professional tailor experienced with velvet to avoid damaging the nap of the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your velvet maxi dress, proper care is essential.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Due to the velvet material, professional dry cleaning is recommended to prevent crushing the pile.
  • Storage: Hang the dress using padded hangers to avoid shoulder dimples or fabric distortion. Do not fold the garment for long periods to prevent permanent creases in the velvet.
  • Ironing/Steaming: Use a steamer on the reverse side of the fabric if necessary. Never press directly on the velvet surface with a hot iron, as this will crush the fibers.
  • Compatibility: This garment is size-inclusive for the LTS range, available from UK size 8 to 22. Always check the sizing chart to ensure the waist and shoulder measurements align with your frame.
