FAQs
What material is the Broderie Mix Tiered Midi Dress made from?
The dress is crafted from lightweight cotton, ensuring it is breathable and comfortable for all-day wear.
Is the dress see-through?
It has a semi-sheer finish due to the nature of broderie anglaise. For full opacity and comfort, we recommend wearing a slip dress or camisole underneath.
How should I wash this delicate dress?
We advise hand washing in cold water with a mild detergent, or using a machine on a delicate cycle with a mesh laundry bag. Air dry by laying flat or hanging on a padded hanger.
Can I iron the dress?
Yes, you can iron it on a low heat setting. For best results and to protect the embroidery, iron the dress inside out and use a pressing cloth if available.
What kind of occasions is this dress suitable for?
Its versatile design makes it perfect for casual events, daytime gatherings, brunches, garden parties, or even as stylish vacation wear. It can be dressed up or down with accessories.

Troubleshooting
Dress appears too sheer for comfort
Wear a neutral-colored slip dress or camisole underneath for added coverage and modesty. Choose one that matches your skin tone or the dress's black color for a seamless look.
Fabric feels stiff or loses softness after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and washing in cold water on a delicate cycle. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive agitation. Air drying and a light steam can help relax the cotton fibers.
Broderie details are snagging or getting damaged
Be mindful of sharp jewelry, rough surfaces, or bags that could catch the delicate embroidery. For washing, always use a mesh laundry bag if machine washing, or opt for hand washing to minimize abrasion.
Dress doesn't drape or flow as expected
The dress is designed with a relaxed A-line silhouette and tiered construction. If it feels off, double-check your sizing. Ensure it's not too tight, which can restrict its natural flow. A gentle steam can also help the fabric settle.

Care Instructions
To maintain the delicate beauty and longevity of your broderie anglaise dress, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Hand wash in cold water with a mild, delicate-fabric detergent. If using a machine, select a 'delicate' or 'hand wash' cycle with cold water and place the dress in a mesh laundry bag.
- Drying: Gently squeeze out excess water (do not wring). Air dry by laying flat on a clean towel or hanging on a padded hanger away from direct sunlight to prevent stretching and fading.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting, preferably inside out, to protect the intricate embroidery. Use a pressing cloth for added protection.
- Storage: Store on a padded hanger to help maintain its shape and prevent creases. Avoid tightly folding for long periods to protect the broderie details.
