FAQs
What size should I order if I'm between sizes?
The 'boyfriend jumper dress' style is designed for a relaxed fit. If you prefer a looser, more comfortable feel, stick to your usual size. For a slightly less oversized look, you might consider sizing down, but consult the brand's specific size guide for the most accurate recommendation.
Can I wear this dress in warmer weather?
Given it's crafted from wool and designed for Autumn/Winter, it's primarily intended for cooler temperatures. It might be too warm for spring or summer weather. However, personal comfort preferences vary.
Is the shimmer prone to shedding?
While designed for durability, minimal shedding of shimmer particles can occasionally occur, especially during initial wears or washing. Following care instructions diligently will help maintain the integrity of the shimmer.
How do I remove wrinkles without an iron?
You can gently steam the dress using a garment steamer, or hang it in a steamy bathroom after a hot shower. The moisture will help relax the fibers and reduce wrinkles.
Is the fabric itchy since it's wool?
The dress is crafted from a 'soft knit fabric' which implies a blend or type of wool chosen for comfort. However, individual sensitivity to wool can vary. Wearing a thin long-sleeve top underneath can add an extra layer of comfort if you are sensitive.
Can this dress be worn formally?
While it has a 'shimmer' and 'slash neckline' that elevate it, the 'jumper dress' and 'boyfriend' style typically lean towards smart-casual or semi-formal rather than strictly formal events. It depends on the specific event and how it's accessorized.
Troubleshooting
The dress appears to have shrunk after washing.
Wool garments are prone to shrinking if exposed to hot water or high heat during drying. Always wash in cold water and air dry flat. If shrinking has occurred, gently re-wet the garment, reshape it while damp, and lay flat to dry.
Shimmer appears dull or is flaking off.
Ensure you are washing the dress inside out and using a gentle detergent. Avoid rubbing or scrubbing the fabric vigorously. Air dry flat, away from direct heat. Excessive friction or harsh chemicals can damage the shimmer application.
Dress looks shapeless or stretched.
The 'boyfriend' style is designed for a relaxed fit. If it feels overly shapeless, consider adding a belt at the waist. For stretching, ensure you are storing the dress folded rather than on a hanger, as knitwear can stretch when hung.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions (Wool):
- Washing: Hand wash in cold water with a mild wool-specific detergent, or machine wash on a delicate/wool cycle with cold water. Turn the dress inside out before washing to protect the shimmer.
- Drying: Gently squeeze out excess water; do not wring. Lay flat on a clean, dry towel to air dry, reshaping as needed. Avoid direct sunlight or high heat, which can cause shrinking or damage to the fabric and shimmer. Do not tumble dry.
- Storage: Fold and store flat in a drawer or on a shelf to prevent stretching or misshaping that can occur when hanging knitwear.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting with a pressing cloth, or use a steamer to gently remove wrinkles. Avoid direct contact of a hot iron with the shimmer.
