FAQs

What type of fabric is this dress made from?

The dress is made from lightweight viscose georgette fabric.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the brand's size chart for accurate measurements. The description notes a flowing silhouette, so consider your preferred fit.

Can this dress be worn for formal occasions?

While elegant, its beach slip style is best suited for semi-formal or casual events, especially those with a coastal or summer theme. It can be elevated with accessories for more formal gatherings.

What is the length of the dress?

The flowing maxi length reaches approximately 149cm.

How should I care for the photographic floral print?

To preserve the print's vibrancy, hand wash in cold water, use mild detergent, and avoid direct sunlight during drying. Iron on a low setting inside out if needed.

Does the dress have adjustable straps?

The dress features delicate straps as part of a T-back design, which are typically fixed rather than adjustable.

What accessories are recommended?

Minimal jewelry, flat sandals, wide-brimmed hats, and woven totes are recommended for a polished, relaxed ensemble. For cooler evenings, a lightweight cardigan or denim jacket works well.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after washing

Gently steam the dress on a low setting or iron inside-out on a cool iron setting. Ensure the fabric is completely dry before ironing.

Fabric feels stiff after drying

Ensure you used a mild detergent. For future washes, consider adding a small amount of fabric softener suitable for delicate fabrics during the rinse cycle.

Straps feel too loose or tight

As this is a slip dress with fixed straps, alterations may be needed. A tailor can adjust the strap length for a perfect fit.

Color seems to fade

Wash the dress in cold water and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Use detergents specifically designed for colored or delicate fabrics.
