FAQs
Does the bodice have a zipper?

Is the fabric suitable for very hot weather?
Yes, the tiered skirt and airy construction are designed to maximize airflow, making it ideal for summer temperatures.
How should I wash the dress?
We recommend a cool, gentle machine wash or hand wash to ensure the longevity of the shirring and fabric quality.
Does the dress have pockets?
The design focuses on a clean silhouette with a tiered skirt; refer to the specific garment tag for feature confirmations as pocket inclusion can vary.
Can I iron this dress?
Steaming is preferred to maintain the volume of the tiered skirt and the integrity of the smocking.
What is the primary material composition?
The dress is crafted from high-quality, lightweight materials suitable for seasonal wear; please verify the specific label on your garment for exact fiber content.
Troubleshooting
Shirred bodice loses elasticity over time
Avoid washing in hot water and refrain from aggressive tumble drying, which can break down elastic fibers.
Fabric appears wrinkled after storage
Use a garment steamer to gently release wrinkles without applying direct heat or pressure to the delicate gathers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Joules Esme Dress in peak condition, always check the interior garment label for specific fabric care instructions. Given the delicate nature of the shirred bodice, it is recommended to wash the garment on a gentle, cool cycle or hand wash to preserve the tension in the elastic. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can degrade the shirring over time. To maintain the crisp look of the tiered skirt, steam rather than iron the fabric to remove wrinkles without flattening the soft gathers.
