FAQs
What is the best way to store this dress?
Hang the dress on a padded or silk-appropriate hanger to maintain its shape. Store it in a breathable garment bag away from direct sunlight and moisture.
How do I determine the right size?
The dress is true to size, and the wrap style allows for an adjustable fit. Refer to the provided measurements for length and waist to find your best match. A size 0P is available for individuals under 160 cm.
Can this dress be worn in different seasons?
The dress is made of lightweight silk, making it ideal for warmer weather. For cooler seasons, it can be layered with a jacket, cardigan, or a thermal base layer underneath.
What type of undergarments are recommended?
Due to the deep V-neckline and silk fabric, seamless undergarments in a nude or matching tone are recommended to maintain a smooth appearance.
Is the wrap style secure?
The wrap is secured with a self-tie waist, allowing you to adjust the fit. For added security, ensure the tie is knotted or bowed firmly.
What does 'Dry clean (code F - hydrocarbon)' mean?
This indicates the specific type of solvent and process professional dry cleaners should use to safely clean the silk fabric without damaging it.
Troubleshooting
Dress does not hang correctly
Ensure the wrap is adjusted properly and tied securely. The tie allows for an adjustable fit, so experiment with different tensions. The asymmetric hem is designed to have a specific drape.
Wrinkles are difficult to remove
Use a professional dry cleaner who can apply appropriate steam. If attempting to iron, use a low heat setting with a protective cloth and iron on the reverse side of the fabric.
Stains appear on the silk
Do not spot clean. Consult a professional dry cleaner immediately and inform them of the nature of the stain. For persistent stains, professional dry cleaning is the only recommended method.
