Designed for adult women who appreciate a balance of romantic charm and practical elegance, this blue floral midi dress is ideal for occasions ranging from garden parties to autumn brunches. Its empire seam and tiered skirt create a flattering, high-waisted silhouette that offers comfort without compromising on style; however, the woven fabric and long sleeves mean it may feel less breathable during high-intensity summer heat.

Follow the care label instructions. Typically, a gentle machine cycle or hand wash in cool water is recommended to protect the frill details.
Yes, the long sleeves and midi length allow you to transition the dress into colder months by pairing it with a tailored blazer, tights, and boots.
The dress is made from a woven fabric designed for structure and drape; check the inner label for specific material composition and lining details.
To avoid shrinkage, always avoid high-temperature tumble drying and follow the specific washing temperatures indicated on the garment tag.
A standard plunge or everyday bra typically works well with the V-neckline, as it is designed to be modest and not overly revealing.
The sleeves feature gathered frill cuffs that provide a fixed, voluminous shape; they are not designed to be rolled up.
Use a garment steamer or a cool iron to gently release wrinkles from the woven fabric.
The empire seam is designed to sit just below the bust; ensure the garment is pulled up properly to align the seam correctly.
To ensure the longevity of your dress, follow the care instructions printed on the internal garment label, as the woven fabric requires specific handling. Generally, use a gentle machine cycle or hand wash to preserve the delicate frill details at the neckline and cuffs. Avoid high-heat tumble drying to prevent shrinking or damage to the fabric structure. When ironing, use a low-heat setting to smooth out the tiered skirt and sleeves, ensuring the frills remain crisp. This dress fits true to standard UK sizing; for those between sizes, the empire seam provides a forgiving fit around the midsection.
