FAQs

What material is this dress made of?

This dress is crafted from high-quality viscose satin, known for its lustrous finish and fluid drape.

Is this dress suitable for a petite frame?

Yes, this specific model is part of the petite range, tailored to provide correct proportions for shorter frames at a 130cm length.

Can I machine wash this dress?

We recommend professional dry cleaning or hand washing in cold water to protect the delicate satin fabric and the integrity of the drape.

Does the dress have any stretch?

The dress is made of satin, which typically has minimal stretch; use the wrap-effect tie for the best fit.

What kind of shoes should I wear with this?

Strappy sandals are excellent for wedding settings, while pointed-toe heels offer a more formal look for evening events.

What is the secondary colour accent?

The dress features gold accents to complement the green satin base.

Troubleshooting

Wrinkles in the satin

Use a handheld steamer on a low-heat setting; avoid direct contact with the iron.

Garment feels loose at the waist

Tighten the wrap-effect waist tie to create a more secure and cinched fit.

Snags in the fabric

Do not pull the snag; use a soft-bristle brush to gently encourage the thread back into the weave.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your garment, always check the care label inside the dress before cleaning. Given the nature of viscose satin, professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the lustre and structure of the drape. If the garment becomes wrinkled, use a low-heat setting on your garment steamer, keeping the nozzle at a distance to avoid water spotting or heat damage to the synthetic fibers. When storing, use a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulder drape and prevent the dress from slipping. Avoid hanging the dress near sharp jewelry or accessories that could cause pulls in the satin material.
