FAQs
What occasions is this dress suitable for?
This dress is versatile and can be worn for casual outings, brunches, dinners, or even dressed up for semi-formal events, depending on styling.
How do I determine my size?
Please consult the specific size guide for Dorothy Perkins garments. Pay attention to bust measurements due to the shirred bodice.
Can the buttons be opened?
The button detail may be functional or decorative. Please check the product description or imagery for confirmation.
What type of undergarments should I wear?
A seamless bra is recommended to maintain a smooth silhouette under the shirred bodice. Nude or color-matched undergarments are best.
How should I store the dress?
Hang the dress on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place to maintain its shape and prevent creasing. Avoid folding for long periods.
Is the fabric stretchy?
The shirred bodice provides significant stretch and comfort. The rest of the fabric's stretch will depend on its composition, typically offering a comfortable drape.
Troubleshooting
Dress does not fit as expected
Refer to the detailed size chart provided by Dorothy Perkins. Consider the shirring for flexibility but ensure the bust and length measurements are appropriate.
Color fading after washing
Always wash in cold water and use a mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying; opt for line drying in the shade.
Shirring loses elasticity
Avoid high heat during washing and drying. Do not iron directly over the shirred areas. Gentle care will preserve the elasticity.
