What is the fabric of the dress made from?
The dress is made from pure cotton, ensuring it is breathable and comfortable for all-day wear.
How should I care for this dress?
It is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold water with similar colors. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low heat and iron on a medium heat setting. Professional dry cleaning is also an option.
Can the halterneck be adjusted?

How does the tiered silhouette affect movement?

Troubleshooting
Dress appears to be the wrong size.
Ensure you have consulted the brand's specific sizing chart. Minor variations in fit can occur between sizes. If the fit is significantly off, check the return policy of the retailer.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
This can sometimes happen with natural fibers. A light tumble dry on low heat or a medium heat iron while slightly damp should help restore softness. Avoid using harsh detergents.
Print seems faded after a few washes.
Ensure you are washing the garment inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle, and avoiding harsh detergents or bleach. Air drying or tumble drying on low heat can also help preserve the print.
