FAQs

What material is the dress made from?

The dress is crafted from 100% polyester, chosen for its durability and ability to hold vibrant prints.

Is the waist tie adjustable?

Yes, the tie is a separate or integrated feature that allows you to cinch the waist to your personal preference for a tighter or looser fit.

Can I machine wash this dress?

It is recommended to use a delicate machine wash cycle or hand wash to preserve the ruching on the sleeves.

How does the sizing run?

The dress follows standard UK sizing guidelines; however, it is a tailored fit, so those between sizes may prefer to size up.

Does the dress have pockets?

The product design focuses on a sleek, tailored shirt-dress aesthetic and typically does not feature side pockets.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after storage

Use a garment steamer on a low setting or hang in the bathroom while taking a hot shower to allow the steam to relax the wrinkles.

Buttons feel loose or catching

Check the buttonholes for any loose threads and gently trim them with fabric scissors; ensure the garment is not pulled too tight at the waist.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design suitable for both formal and semi-formal events
  • Flattering silhouette provided by the integrated tie-waist
  • Sophisticated floral print offers a timeless, artistic look
  • Easy to dress up with heels or down for simpler occasions

Cons

  • Material is 100% polyester, which may be less breathable in humid conditions
  • Limited stretch due to the structured tailoring
  • Requires careful storage to prevent wrinkling of the puff sleeves

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Phase Eight Bella shirt dress in top condition, it is recommended to follow standard garment care for polyester. Because of the delicate nature of the ruched sleeves, the dress should ideally be hung rather than folded to prevent permanent creasing in the gathered areas. When laundering, wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours and avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can damage the structural integrity of the sleeves. If ironing is necessary, use a cool setting and a pressing cloth to avoid direct contact with the fabric.
