Product Information
Full details
The Adrianna Papell Asymmetric Cape Gown is a sophisticated choice for adults attending formal galas, black-tie events, or serving as the mother of the bride. This gown combines a luminous satin finish with a dramatic, flowing cape overlay to create a modern silhouette, though its floor-length mermaid cut and side slit require attention to footwear and movement during events.

FAQs
Does the gown require a specific type of undergarment?
Due to the fitted nature of the mermaid silhouette and the satin fabric, seamless, nude-colored undergarments are highly recommended to ensure a smooth appearance.
Can I wear a necklace with this gown?
The gown features a beaded crew neckline that acts as built-in jewelry. It is best to avoid necklaces and instead focus on elegant earrings.
What length of shoe heel is best for this dress?
High heels or elegant stilettos work best to complement the floor-length mermaid silhouette, but ensure you select a heel height you can comfortably stand in for the duration of your event.
Is the cape removable?
No, the cape is an integrated structural element of the gown's design.
How should I clean the gown after an event?
This gown requires professional dry cleaning to maintain the integrity of the satin material and the beadwork.
Troubleshooting
Beading snagging on other fabrics
Ensure the gown is stored separately from delicate knits or items with loose threads.
Wrinkles in the satin skirt
Use a professional garment steamer on a low, delicate setting, keeping the steamer head at least six inches away from the fabric.
Hem dragging on the ground
Take the gown to a tailor to have the hem adjusted to the height of the shoes you intend to wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the luster of the satin fabric, this garment should be professionally dry cleaned only. When storing, use a padded hanger to preserve the shape of the shoulders and the drape of the cape. Ensure the gown is kept in a breathable garment bag to protect it from dust and potential snags from jewelry or furniture. If the gown requires a custom fit, consult a professional tailor specializing in evening wear, especially when adjusting the hem to match your choice of heels, as the mermaid silhouette is highly sensitive to length variations.
