FAQs

Is this dress true to size?

The dress is designed for a tailored fit. The inclusion of the waist belt allows for some minor adjustments to the silhouette.

Can I iron this dress?

We recommend using a garment steamer on a low heat setting to avoid damaging the tweed texture or the beaded neckline.

What length does this dress sit at?

This is a mini dress designed to sit well above the knee.

How should I clean the gold-tone buttons?

Wipe the buttons gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove fingerprints. Do not use chemical cleaners.

Does the dress come in different sizes?

Yes, this model is available in various UK sizes ranging from 4 to 16, including some petite variations.

Troubleshooting

Bead trim feels loose

Avoid tugging on the neckline. If a bead becomes loose, take the garment to a professional tailor for a secure re-attachment.

Fabric has minor snags

Do not pull on loose fibers. Use a small pair of embroidery scissors to carefully trim any protruding threads at the frayed edges.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated embellishments remove the need for extra jewelry
  • Tailored fit enhances the silhouette via the adjustable belt
  • Fully lined interior ensures high-quality feel and comfort
  • Versatile design suitable for both daytime ceremonies and evening events

Cons

  • Mini length may not be suitable for strictly formal dress codes
  • Requires professional dry cleaning to protect beaded trim
  • Textured tweed fabric may snag if handled roughly with jewelry

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your garment, always follow the care label instructions. Given the presence of intricate beaded trim and frayed edges, this dress should be dry-cleaned only; machine washing will likely damage the embellishments and the delicate edge finish. When storing, use a padded hanger to prevent shoulder indentation and keep the dress in a garment bag to protect the tweed texture from potential snags. The belt should be stored flat or wrapped loosely around the hanger hook. If the dress arrives slightly creased from storage, use a professional garment steamer on a low setting, ensuring you maintain a safe distance from the beads to avoid melting or displacement.
