FAQs

Is the cami lining permanently attached?

No, the cami lining is removable, allowing you to wear it with or without the dress depending on your styling preference.

Does the fabric have any stretch?

The crochet is crafted from cotton, which provides a natural, soft feel with a slight give, but it is not a high-stretch synthetic fabric.

What is the best way to prevent snags?

Be cautious when wearing jewelry such as bracelets or rings with sharp edges, as these can easily catch on the crochet weave.

Can I machine wash this dress?

It is highly recommended to avoid machine washing to prevent damage, shrinking, or snagging. Dry cleaning is the safest option.

How do I know if the UK 6 will fit me?

Measure your bust and waist against the provided specs (Bust: 66 cm, Waist: 68 cm). Keep in mind the dress is designed for a body-skimming, true-to-size fit.

Troubleshooting

Snagged yarn in the crochet pattern

Do not cut the snagged thread. Gently use a needle to pull the loop back through to the inside of the garment to secure it.

Dress appears slightly stretched

Lay the garment flat on a clean, dry towel in its original shape and allow it to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your dress remains in top condition, follow these care guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Due to the delicate nature of the crochet, professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the shape and texture.
  • Storage: Always store the dress folded or lying flat; hanging for extended periods may cause the cotton to stretch under its own weight.
  • Lining Maintenance: The removable cami can be washed separately according to its specific care label, ensuring the main crochet piece remains protected from heavy agitation.
  • Fit: The dress is designed to be true-to-size. For a UK size 6, the garment measurements are 137.5 cm in length, 66 cm at the bust, 68 cm at the waist, and 32.5 cm at the shoulders.
