FAQs
Is the dress machine washable?
No, due to the delicate flocked velvet fabric, dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the quality and texture.
What is the best way to store this dress?
Store it on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, ideally inside a breathable garment bag.
Does the dress have a built-in bra?
No, the dress is fully lined but does not feature integrated support, so it is recommended to wear with appropriate foundation garments.
How should I handle wrinkles in the velvet?
Steam lightly from the inside or hold the steamer nozzle away from the fabric to avoid direct heat damage to the flocking.
Is the dress true to size?
The dress follows standard UK sizing; please refer to the size guide to ensure the best fit for your measurements.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears crushed or flattened
Use a professional garment steamer to gently lift the velvet fibers, keeping the nozzle a safe distance from the material.
Small lint or dust on the flocked surface
Use a soft garment brush specifically designed for velvet to gently remove debris in the direction of the nap.
Garment feels static
Apply a light anti-static spray on the lining only, ensuring no product touches the outer velvet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this garment is made of premium velvet with a flocked finish, proper maintenance is essential to keep it looking pristine. Always store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and prevent velvet crushing. For cleaning, check the internal garment tag; due to the delicate flocked texture, dry cleaning is highly recommended over hand or machine washing to preserve the integrity of the pile. When traveling, use a garment bag to avoid snagging or crushing the flocked details. Avoid ironing directly on the velvet; if wrinkles occur, a professional steamer used from a distance is the safest method to refresh the fabric.
