FAQs

Can I iron this velvet dress?

No, you should never use an iron directly on velvet as it will flatten the pile and potentially burn the fabric. Use a steamer instead.

Is the dress true to size?

The dress is designed with stretch velvet, providing a flexible fit, but it is recommended to follow the standard UK size chart for the best silhouette.

What kind of undergarments work best?

Seamless undergarments are recommended to maintain a smooth look under the form-fitting velvet wrap style.

Is this dress appropriate for winter?

Yes, the velvet fabric provides natural warmth, making it an excellent choice for autumn and winter events.

How do I store the dress long-term?

Store it hanging in a cool, dry place inside a garment bag to protect it from dust and avoid any items pressing against the velvet.

Troubleshooting

Creases in the velvet fabric

Steam the dress lightly from the inside using a professional garment steamer, keeping the nozzle a few inches away to avoid crushing the velvet pile.

Gold trim looks dull

Gently wipe the gold detailing with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to remove oils and dust.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Gina Bacconi dress remains in pristine condition, proper care is essential. Given the velvet material, it is highly recommended to dry clean the garment professionally. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents which can damage the fabric fibers. For storage, hang the dress in a breathable garment bag rather than folding it, as velvet is susceptible to permanent creases. When traveling, lay the dress flat in your suitcase and remove it from the bag immediately upon arrival to prevent the pile from being crushed.
