This dress is primarily designed for formal or evening occasions due to its embellished detailing and cape silhouette.
Due to the embellishments, professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the quality of the fabric and decorative elements.
Petite sizing is proportioned for women 5'3" and under, meaning the sleeves, torso length, and waist placement are adjusted compared to standard sizing.
The cape sleeve design is best displayed without bulky layers; a slim-fitting shawl or stole is a better alternative if extra warmth is needed.
The dress is designed with a refined silhouette that typically features internal finishing to ensure comfort and a clean drape.
Secure any loose threads immediately with a matching needle and thread, taking care not to pull on the decorative seam.
Use a low-temperature steam iron, keeping the iron away from the direct embellished sections to avoid damage.
To maintain the integrity of the embellished seams, it is highly recommended to hand wash the garment or use a delicate dry-cleaning service. When storing, ensure the cape sleeves are laid flat or hung on a padded hanger to prevent misshaping. Because the cut is specifically for petite sizes (UK 18 as described), ensure you verify your measurements against the Wallis size guide to achieve the intended fit at the shoulders and waist.
