FAQs

Can I machine wash this dress?

No, this dress is made of high-quality velvet and must be professionally dry cleaned to preserve the fabric's finish.

Does the dress have a zipper?

The dress features a concealed closure system designed to maintain the seamless look of the architectural silhouette.

Is the fabric stretchy?

While the viscose-rich blend offers some comfort, it is designed to be a structured, fitted garment, so it does not possess the high elasticity of knitwear.

What length is the midi hem?

The dress is designed as a midi length, typically falling below the knee and above the ankle, depending on individual height.

How should I store the dress?

Always store on a high-quality hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading or crushing of the velvet.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appears crushed or flattened after storage

Gently steam the garment from the reverse side or hang in a steamy bathroom to help the velvet pile lift back to its original state.

Neckline feels too tight or restrictive

Ensure the internal structure is not folded during wear and adjust the bodice positioning to sit naturally on the shoulders.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated architectural aesthetic
  • Flattering silhouette for various formal settings
  • High-quality velvet material with light-catching finish
  • Fully lined for structure and comfort

Cons

  • Requires professional dry cleaning
  • Velvet material can be sensitive to moisture and friction
  • Structured design may offer less stretch than jersey garments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of the velvet pile, avoid ironing directly on the fabric. Use a garment steamer at a safe distance or professional dry cleaning services only. When storing, keep the dress on a padded hanger to preserve the shape of the asymmetric neckline. The dress is best paired with classic heels to complement the midi length. Ensure you check the sizing guide, as the tailored waist is designed for a close, body-skimming fit.
