FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is ideal for daywear, including casual outings, office wear, or smart-casual events. It can be dressed up with accessories for slightly more formal gatherings.

What material is the dress made from?

The main material for this specific variant is Cotton, providing a comfortable and breathable jersey feel.

Does this dress have pockets?

Info needed: The product description does not mention pockets, suggesting it likely does not include them.

How should I wash this dress?

For best results, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Tumble dry low or lay flat to dry. Iron on low heat if needed.

Is the tie detail adjustable?

Yes, the tie detail is designed to be adjustable, allowing you to cinch the waist to your preference for a customized and flattering fit.

Is this dress true to size?

Dorothy Perkins generally adheres to standard UK sizing. We recommend checking their official size guide if you are unsure, or comparing your measurements to their chart. Model wears size UK 10.

Can I wear this dress in cooler weather?

While it features short sleeves, the midi length provides some coverage. You can layer it with a cardigan, jacket, or blazer and pair it with tights or boots for cooler temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Tie detail doesn't sit correctly

Adjust the tie knot and placement around your waist until it feels comfortable and looks flattering. Ensure the fabric isn't twisted underneath.

Dress appears wrinkled after washing

Iron on a low setting on the reverse side of the fabric. To minimize wrinkles, remove from dryer promptly or air dry flat.

Fit feels too loose or too tight

Consult the Dorothy Perkins size chart before purchase. If the fit is slightly off, consider the adjustable tie detail to cinch the waist for a better silhouette. For significant fit issues, checking other available sizes might be necessary.

Color seems to fade over time

Always wash in cold water with similar colors and use a detergent specifically for dark clothes to help preserve the black dye. Avoid direct prolonged sunlight when drying.
