FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is ideal for casual outings, brunches, garden parties, or everyday wear due to its comfortable cotton fabric and relaxed yet stylish design.

How do I adjust the drawstring?

The drawstring is located at the waist. You can pull either end to tighten or loosen the waist for a customized fit.

Is this dress machine washable?

Yes, it is recommended to machine wash cold or hand wash with similar colors. Follow the care label instructions for best results.

What does 'petite fit' mean?

A petite fit is designed for individuals who are shorter in height. This means the length of the dress, as well as sleeve and torso proportions, are adjusted accordingly.

What material is the dress made from?

The dress is made from cotton, which makes it breathable and comfortable for wear.

Can I wear this dress in hot weather?

Yes, the cotton material makes this dress suitable for warmer weather due to its breathability.

How do I care for the broderie detailing?

To care for the broderie detailing, avoid harsh washing and drying. Gentle washing (cold or hand wash) and air drying are recommended to preserve the embroidery.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears too loose or shapeless

Adjust the drawstring to cinch the waist for a more defined silhouette.

Broderie detailing snagged or damaged

Carefully try to re-weave any loose threads with a fine needle. Avoid harsh washing or drying methods.

Color fading after washing

Ensure you are washing in cold water and using a mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Try a fabric softener on a low setting during the wash cycle, or air dry thoroughly.
