What occasions is this dress suitable for?

What material is the dress made from?

How is the length of the dress measured?

The midi length is approximately 138cm from shoulder to hem, ensuring an elegant proportion.

Can the belt be worn separately?

How should I style this dress for an event?

As per the styling suggestion, pair it with a statement gold cuff bracelet, pointed-toe heeled mules, and a structured clutch bag for a polished occasion ensemble.

Is the dress true to size?

Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after storage.

Gently steam the dress on a low setting or have it professionally dry-cleaned and pressed.

Belt does not cinch the waist effectively.

Ensure the belt is threaded through the provided loops correctly and tightened to your preference. Consider the dress's natural drape without the belt for a different look.

Fabric feels stiff or loses drape.

This can sometimes happen with natural blends. Ensure proper dry cleaning and avoid washing or excessive ironing which can damage the fibers.
