FAQs
What is the best way to clean this dress?
The dress should be machine washed at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Always avoid high-heat tumble drying.
Does the fabric have any stretch?
The dress is designed with a relaxed fit, and the smocked sleeves provide a degree of flexibility for comfort.
Can I wear this dress in the winter?
While the fabric is lightweight, it can be styled in winter by adding a structured coat, tights, or base layers underneath.
What size is the item listed?
This specific variant is a UK size 8.
Is the dress opaque?
The body of the dress is designed for coverage, while the sleeves feature sheer detailing for an elegant, contrasting look.
Troubleshooting
Garment looks wrinkled after unpacking
Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for several minutes to allow the fibers to relax, or use a handheld steamer on a low heat setting.
Fabric snagged on jewelry
Avoid wearing sharp, oversized bracelets or necklaces near the sheer sleeves. If a small pull occurs, do not cut it; use a sewing needle to gently pull the thread back through to the inside of the garment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a ready-to-wear garment, no complex setup is required. To ensure the longevity of the fabric and the integrity of the smocked sheer sleeves, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C.
- Detergent: Use a mild, color-safe detergent to protect the black dye.
- Drying: Air dry the garment by hanging it on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the wave hem.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Use a garment bag to protect the delicate sleeve fabric from snagging against zippers or jewelry in your closet.
