FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is suitable for a range of occasions, from smart-casual events like luncheons and parties to semi-formal gatherings. Its elegant design makes it versatile for day-to-night wear.

What does 'petite' sizing mean?

Petite sizing refers to clothing specifically designed for individuals with a shorter stature. This typically means adjusted proportions, including shorter sleeve lengths, shorter hemlines, and a potentially higher waistline compared to standard sizing.

How should I wash this dress?

It is recommended to hand wash the dress in cold water with a mild detergent or use a gentle machine cycle with cold water. Avoid tumble drying; instead, lay it flat to air dry.

Can I wear this dress to work?

Yes, the dress can be suitable for a professional environment, especially when paired with a tailored blazer or cardigan and appropriate footwear. Its sophisticated design lends itself well to office settings.

What colours does this dress come in?

This specific product description is for the Pale Pink variant. Please check other listings for potential colour variations.

How do I iron the jacquard pattern?

Iron the dress on a low heat setting, preferably inside out, to protect the jacquard pattern. Using a pressing cloth can also help prevent damage.

What is the length of the midi dress?

The midi length typically falls below the knee and above the ankle. The exact measurement will vary slightly due to the petite sizing, designed to hit at an appropriate point for shorter frames.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears too long

This dress is designed for petite sizing. If it still appears too long, consider having it professionally hemmed to your exact height.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals. Gently stretch the fabric while damp or iron on a low setting as per care instructions.

Jacquard pattern looks faded

Avoid direct sunlight during drying and storage. Wash inside out and iron on a low heat setting as recommended.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the quality and appearance of the Wallis Petite Jacquard Seam Detail Midi Dress, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Hand wash in cold water or use a gentle cycle on your washing machine with cold water. It is recommended to use a mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay the dress flat on a clean towel or drying rack away from direct sunlight to air dry. This helps preserve the fabric's integrity and prevent shrinkage.
