Product Information
Full details
This monochrome mini dress is designed for the fashion-conscious adult female seeking a blend of classic style and modern comfort. Its key benefit lies in its versatile design, suitable for various occasions, from casual outings to more dressed-up events. A potential consideration is the tie-back detail, which offers light waist shaping and may require adjustment for a perfect fit. The dress features a black waistcoat-style bodice made from a cotton-linen blend with a button front, contrasted by a white cotton skirt. It includes a round neck, sleeveless design, fitted bodice, tie-back detail, relaxed skirt, and light lining.

Troubleshooting
Dress feels too tight in the bodice.
Loosen the tie-back detail to create more room. Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the size guide. The fitted bodice is intended to be snug.
Skirt appears wrinkled after washing.
Remove the dress from the dryer promptly or hang it to air dry. Iron the skirt on a medium heat setting while slightly damp.
Tie-back detail comes undone easily.
Ensure the tie is secured with a firm knot. If the fabric is very smooth, a double knot might provide extra security.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with like colours. Use a gentle cycle.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry low or hang dry for best results.
- Ironing: Iron on a medium heat setting. For the bodice, a slightly higher heat may be used on the cotton-linen blend, while the cotton skirt should be ironed on a medium setting.
