FAQs
What material is the dress made from?
The dress is crafted from high-quality woven cotton.
Does the dress come with a belt?
Yes, it includes a coordinating wide belt with double-ring gold-tone hardware.
Can this dress be machine washed?
It is recommended to dry clean or use a delicate, low-agitation hand wash to protect the intricate cutwork embroidery.
Is the dress true to size?
The dress is designed as a structured piece. If you prefer a looser fit in the shoulder area, you may consider sizing up, though the belt allows for significant waist adjustment.
Is the fabric transparent?
The cutwork embroidery creates small openings in the fabric; wearing a nude-colored slip is recommended for complete opacity.
What is the length of the dress?
It is a midi-length design, which typically falls to the mid-calf depending on the wearer's height.
Troubleshooting
Fabric snagging on jewelry or accessories
Avoid wearing bracelets or rings with sharp edges when wearing the dress, as the intricate cutwork can easily catch on loose jewelry.
Belt hardware tarnishing
Wipe the gold-tone double-ring hardware with a soft, dry microfiber cloth after use to remove sweat or oils, and store the belt separately in a pouch.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the garment, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure the belt is threaded through the loops evenly to maintain the balance of the A-line structure.
- Storage: Hang the dress on a wide-shouldered hanger to prevent the puff sleeves from losing their shape.
- Cleaning: Due to the delicate nature of the cutwork embroidery, professional dry cleaning is recommended to avoid snagging or tearing the pattern. If you must wash it at home, use a delicate cycle inside a mesh laundry bag with mild detergent, and always air dry flat.
- Ironing: Use a low-heat setting or a steamer, keeping the iron away from the gold-tone hardware on the belt.
