FAQs

Is this dress suitable for all body types?

The dress features an asymmetric drape that is designed to flatter various silhouettes, though the satin material has minimal stretch. We recommend checking specific measurements for the size 16 fit.

Does the dress include the cape shown in imagery?

The cape is sold separately and is intended as a complementary accessory to complete the look.

How should I store the dress long-term?

Use a breathable cotton garment bag and hang the dress in a climate-controlled environment to protect the satin and embellishments.

Can I iron the satin fabric?

We recommend using a garment steamer from a distance to remove wrinkles, as direct iron heat can crush the satin finish or damage the beadwork.

What is the primary material used?

The garment is constructed from black crêpe back satin.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty operating the back zip

Ensure the dress is fully cooled if it has been stored in a warm area and check that no inner lining is caught in the teeth of the zipper.

Minor snagging in the beadwork

Do not pull the thread. Take the garment to a professional tailor who specializes in evening wear and embroidery restoration.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality crêpe back satin material

Cons

  • Requires professional dry cleaning only

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the dress, treat the garment with caution when using zippers to avoid snagging the satin or embroidery. We recommend storing the dress in a breathable garment bag in a cool, dry place to prevent the beads from catching on other textiles.

Care Instructions:

  • Dry Clean Only: Do not machine wash or tumble dry as heat and agitation will damage the crystal embroidery.
  • Storage: Hang on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the asymmetric drape.
  • Handling: Avoid exposure to sharp jewelry that could pull at the satin fibers or loose threads in the embroidery.
