FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This midi dress is suitable for a range of occasions, from casual daytime events and brunches to more formal gatherings like weddings or parties, depending on how it is styled.

How does the linen material perform in hot weather?

Linen is known for its breathability, making this dress a comfortable choice for hot weather as it allows air to circulate and helps to keep you cool.

Are there other sizes or colors available?

This specific listing is for UK Size 16 in Purple. Please check other listings for Dorothy Perkins Angel Sleeve Seam Detail Midi Dress to see available sizes and colors.

How should I care for the linen fabric?

It's best to machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors and air dry or tumble dry on low. Iron on a low heat if needed. Always check the care label for specific instructions.

Does the seam detail affect the fit?

The seam detail is designed to flatter the figure, providing structure and enhancing the silhouette for a more tailored and sophisticated look.

Can I wear this dress year-round?

While ideal for warmer months due to the linen, it can be layered with cardigans or jackets for cooler weather, making it adaptable for year-round wear.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled upon arrival.

Gently iron on a low heat setting or use a garment steamer to remove creases. Ensure the dress is dry before ironing.

Color fades after washing.

Wash with similar colors using a mild detergent and opt for cold water. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during drying.
