Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the fabric stretchy?

Satin jacquard typically has limited stretch, so it is recommended to choose your size based on a comfortable fit across the shoulders and bust.

Can I machine wash this dress?

It is highly recommended to hand wash or dry clean to protect the integrity of the satin material.

Where does the midi length sit?

The midi length is designed to fall mid-calf, though this may vary slightly depending on your personal height.

Does the dress feature a zipper?

While design specifics can vary, most Dorothy Perkins midi dresses include a discrete side or back zip closure for easy dressing.

What is the best way to remove wrinkles?

A low-heat garment steamer is the safest and most effective tool for satin.

Troubleshooting

Fabric snagging or pulls

Avoid contact with rough jewelry or abrasive surfaces while wearing the garment.

Wrinkling during storage

Use a garment steamer on a low setting to gently release wrinkles; avoid high-heat ironing.

Stains on satin

Do not rub; blot the area immediately with a clean, dry white cloth and seek professional dry cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Dorothy Perkins dress in peak condition, always check the internal care label. Given the delicate nature of satin, it is recommended to dry clean or hand wash in cold water using a mild detergent designed for delicates. Avoid wringing the fabric, as this can damage the jacquard weave. When storing, use a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and prevent the fabric from creasing. Because this item comes in specific UK sizing (e.g., Size 16), ensure you verify your measurements against the brand's standard size chart for the best fit.
