How should I determine my size?

Does the gold-tone hardware require special care?

Troubleshooting
Dress loses shape after cleaning
Ensure the dress is professionally dry-cleaned as per the care instructions. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as these can damage the knit structure.
Zipper is difficult to use
Gently work the zipper up and down. If it snags, check for any fabric caught in the teeth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or wax to the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly.
Fabric appears to stretch out
Ensure proper storage by hanging on a padded hanger. Avoid folding for extended periods. If minor stretching occurs, a professional dry cleaner may be able to assist in reshaping.
