FAQs

What material is the dress made from?

The dress is crafted from a viscose-linen blend, offering a refined drape with a structured finish. It also features a cotton lining.

How long is the dress?

The midi length sits at approximately 133cm from the shoulder to the hem.

How should I style the dress for maximum impact?

Style with minimal accessories and simple footwear like block-heeled mules. A sleek updo or slicked-back hair will complement the neckline beautifully.

Can this dress be machine washed?

Is the cape collar detachable?

Troubleshooting

Dress is wrinkled upon arrival

Gently steam the dress on a low setting, focusing on the inside. Alternatively, hang it in a steamy bathroom for a short period. For stubborn wrinkles, professional dry cleaning with pressing is recommended.

Cape collar losing its structure

Ensure the dress is stored on a padded hanger. If the structure has softened, professional dry cleaning with specific attention to reshaping the collar is advised.

Fabric feels stiff after cleaning

This may be due to the nature of the linen blend. Gentle wear and allowing the garment to air out should help. If the stiffness persists, consult a professional dry cleaner.
