FAQs

What type of bra is best with this dress?

Troubleshooting

Dress doesn't drape as expected.

Ensure the dress is fully dry and has been lightly steamed or ironed on a cool setting. Check that you are wearing the correct size for a proper fit.

Strapless neckline slips.

Consider using fashion tape between the dress and your skin for a more secure hold. Ensure the fabric isn't excessively damp from perspiration, which can reduce grip.

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and not over-drying the garment. Air drying flat is recommended. Avoid fabric softeners which can sometimes affect jersey.
