HOPE & IVY SALMA KIMONO DRESS - Size: 12

The tie waist is typically a fabric belt attached to the dress. Thread it through the loops or wrap it around your waist and tie it securely at the front or back to achieve your desired fit and shape.

The Salma dress is highly versatile. It can be worn for casual outings, parties, work events (depending on dress code), and even more formal occasions when styled appropriately with accessories and footwear.

Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart for 'Simply Be' or 'Hope & Ivy' if available. The adjustable waist allows for some flexibility, but consider your bust and hip measurements for the best fit.

Yes, the midi length and flowing design make it adaptable. For cooler weather, layer it with a cardigan, jacket, or tights. For warmer weather, its breathable nature (especially in cotton) makes it comfortable.

A seamless bra is recommended. Depending on the fabric opacity and your preference, shapewear or a slip may be worn for a smoother silhouette, especially with lighter colors or thinner materials.

The dress has a midi length, specified as 138cm.

Adjust the tie waist to alter the drape and perceived length. For significant length adjustments, consider professional tailoring or pairing with different footwear.

Ensure you are washing the garment according to its material-specific care instructions. Use a color catcher sheet for the first few washes, especially for highly saturated colors. Wash separately if concerned.

If the fabric feels stiff, it might benefit from a gentle wash following the care label instructions. For silk or wool, a professional dry clean may be best. Ensure the correct care method is being used for the specific material.
