FAQs
What kind of bra should I wear with this dress?
A strapless bra is recommended to maintain the clean lines of the bandeau neckline. Silicone grip bras can offer extra security against slipping.
How should I store this dress?
It is best to store the dress on a padded hanger to protect the fabric and maintain the shape of the pleats. Avoid folding it tightly for extended periods.
Can this dress be altered?
Yes, like most garments, it can be altered by a professional tailor. However, altering pleated chiffon requires expertise to maintain the pleat structure.
What occasions is this dress suitable for?
The dress is suitable for a range of occasions, including parties, weddings, evening events, and smart-casual gatherings depending on how it is styled.
How do I ensure the pleats stay intact after washing?
Hand wash or use a gentle machine cycle with cold water. Avoid tumble drying and instead, lay flat or hang to air dry. If ironing is necessary, use a cool setting on the reverse side and avoid direct heat on the pleats.
Does the dress come in other colors or sizes?
This specific product is available in Cobalt blue and UK size 6. Please check the product listing for available size and color variations.
Troubleshooting
Dress arrived with creased pleats
Gently steam the dress on a cool setting, focusing on the pleats. Avoid direct ironing on pleats as it can damage their structure. Laying flat to dry after washing can also help maintain pleat definition.
Bandeau neckline feels insecure
Consider wearing a strapless bra for added support and to ensure the neckline stays in place. Silicone grip bras can also help prevent slipping.
Fabric appears transparent
Wear appropriate undergarments. A slip or a nude-colored bra and underwear should suffice given the fabric type and color.
