FAQs

Is the belt removable?

Yes, the contrast tie belt is detachable, allowing you to style the dress with or without it.

What length is the dress?

The dress is designed in a midi-to-maxi length, providing full coverage with an elegant, modern finish.

Can I machine wash this dress?

Please consult the garment's internal care tag. Due to the crepe composition and hardware, professional dry cleaning is often recommended to maintain the fabric's drape.

Does the dress have much stretch?

The fabric is a 'stretched' crepe, meaning it offers enough give for comfort and movement while maintaining a structured, fitted look.

How do I style the neckline?

The bateau neckline is minimalist and pairs beautifully with statement earrings or a delicate pendant necklace.

Troubleshooting

Wrinkles appearing in the crepe fabric

Use a low-heat steamer to gently release wrinkles; avoid pressing directly on the fabric with a hot iron to prevent scorching.

Belt hardware losing luster

Wipe the gold-tone ring with a soft, dry microfiber cloth after use to remove body oils and moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of the garment, always check the internal care label for specific washing instructions. Because of the gold-tone ring hardware on the belt, it is recommended to remove the belt before cleaning the dress to avoid scratching or snagging the crepe fabric in the wash. Store the dress on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder indentation and to keep the fabric wrinkle-free. When matching with accessories, the beige and gold color palette pairs best with neutral-toned jewelry and minimalist leather goods.
