FAQs

What occasions is this dress best suited for?

This dress is perfect for special occasions such as weddings (as a flower girl dress), birthdays, holiday parties, christenings, and any event where an elegant and charming outfit is desired.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by UK Flower Girl Boutique. Measure your child's chest and height, and compare these measurements to the chart. The description notes availability from 6 months to 14 years, with the specific item being 18-24 months (1-2 years).

Can this dress be worn in warmer weather?

While the wine color and long sleeves offer a warmer feel, the lightweight lace and layered tulle can be suitable for cooler spring or autumn days. For very warm weather, consider lighter-colored options or dresses with shorter sleeves if available.

Is the lace bodice itchy?

No, the description specifies that the lace bodice is fully lined for a soft and gentle touch against delicate skin, prioritizing comfort.

How should I store the dress?

Store the dress in a breathable garment bag or on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place. Avoid folding it tightly, especially the tulle skirt, to maintain its shape and prevent excessive creasing.

Can I add a sash to this dress?

Yes, the dress is designed with a nipped waist that is perfect for adding a sash. A diamanté or satin sash is suggested to add extra sparkle and personalize the look.

What are the washing instructions?

It is best to hand wash the dress in cold water using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and do not machine dry. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Dress arrives wrinkled or tulle is flat.

Gently steam the dress on a low setting, ensuring the steamer does not touch the fabric directly, or hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for 15-20 minutes. Allow the tulle to hang freely for a few hours to regain its volume.

Lace appears delicate or snagged.

Handle the dress with extreme care. Avoid placing it near rough surfaces or sharp objects. If a minor snag occurs, do not pull it; try to gently tease it back into place with a fine needle or tweezers.

Color transfer from the wine tulle.

Ensure the dress is only hand washed in cold water with like colors. Do not soak. Lay flat to dry immediately after washing to prevent color bleeding onto the lace or other garments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This dress requires no assembly. It is ready to wear upon arrival. It is recommended to gently steam or hang the dress upon receipt to allow the tulle skirt to fully unfurl and achieve its intended floaty silhouette.

Compatibility: While designed as a special occasion dress, it can be paired with various accessories such as diamanté or satin sashes, delicate hairbands, or elegant shoes to complement different event themes. It's available in sizes ranging from 6 months to 14 years, ensuring a fit for various ages.

Care: Due to the delicate nature of the lace and tulle, hand washing in cold water with a mild detergent is highly recommended. Avoid harsh scrubbing. Rinse thoroughly and lay flat to dry or hang on a padded hanger, away from direct sunlight to maintain the fabric's integrity and color. Do not bleach, iron on high heat, or dry clean as these actions can damage the materials and delicate lace detailing. It is advisable to check the care label for specific instructions.
