FAQs

What material is the dress made from?

This pinafore dress is constructed from high-quality polyester, chosen for its durability and wrinkle-resistant properties.

Can I wear this in the winter?

Yes, it is an excellent layering piece. It pairs very well with long-sleeve tops, turtlenecks, and thick tights for colder weather.

How should I clean the dress?

We recommend following the internal care label instructions, typically suggesting a gentle machine cycle or professional cleaning.

Is the waist belt removable?

The belt is designed to be a functional part of the silhouette, though it can generally be adjusted or removed depending on your preferred style.

Does this dress fit true to size?

The dress is designed with a regular fit. If you prefer a more tailored look or plan to layer very thick items underneath, you may want to compare your measurements against the size chart.

Troubleshooting

The zipper is sticking or feels stiff

Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. If it remains stiff, rub a small amount of graphite from a pencil along the zipper teeth to lubricate it.

The belt feels loose or slides down

Double-check that the belt is properly looped through the integrated waist channels. If it continues to loosen, consider a light pressing to sharpen the fabric or adding a small hidden stitch.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your & Other Stories pinafore dress in peak condition, consider these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Follow the garment care label precisely. Polyester is generally machine-washable on a gentle cycle, but cold water is recommended to protect the integrity of the belt and seams.
  2. Drying: Air dry the dress on a hanger to prevent unnecessary shrinking or fabric stress; avoid high-heat tumble drying.
  3. Storage: Store the dress on a sturdy hanger to keep the shoulder structure and neckline crisp. Ensure the belt is looped or stored nearby to avoid misplacement.
  4. Styling Compatibility: The dress pairs best with slim-fit under-layers. Avoid bulky sweaters that might interfere with the waist belt's fit.
