FAQs
What is the primary material composition?

Is this dress suitable for formal events?
Yes, its midi length and elegant pattern make it appropriate for semi-formal occasions, garden parties, and afternoon events.
How should I wash this garment?
Use a delicate machine wash cycle and cold water to protect the colors and the structural integrity of the shirred cuffs.
Does the pink color fade easily?
To prevent fading, wash the dress inside out and avoid direct, prolonged sunlight when air drying.

Can I tumble dry the dress?

Troubleshooting
Creasing after storage
Use a light steam iron on a low setting or hang the dress in the bathroom while taking a hot shower to release wrinkles.
Shirred cuffs feeling tight
Ensure the sleeves are pulled up to your forearms for a more relaxed, three-quarter length look if the wrist fit is too snug.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your garment, always follow the care label instructions sewn into the interior side seam. Because of the delicate shirred cuffs, it is recommended to wash the dress on a gentle or delicate cycle using a mesh laundry bag. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can degrade the elasticity of the shirred fabric over time. Hang drying is the best method to maintain the shape of the midi silhouette. The dress is available in UK size 16, and you should ensure the fit is comfortable across the shoulders for maximum mobility.
