FAQs

What is the total length of this midi dress?

The dress finishes at approximately 133cm in length.

Is the fabric stretchy?

The garment is made from a woven viscose-linen blend, which provides a structured drape rather than the stretch found in knit or elastane-based fabrics.

How should I clean this dress?

Due to the artisanal topstitching and fabric blend, professional dry cleaning or a very gentle hand wash in cool water is recommended to preserve the shape and stitching quality.

Can I wear this dress to a wedding?

Yes, its polished silhouette and elegant detailing make it a highly appropriate choice for smart-casual or weekend weddings.

Does it have pockets?

The provided design details focus on the pleated skirt and button-through structure; please check the garment interior for any hidden utility features.

Troubleshooting

Visible creasing after sitting

Linen blends are naturally prone to creasing; use a handheld fabric steamer on a low setting to gently release wrinkles without applying heavy pressure to the seams.

Stray threads appearing on topstitching

Carefully trim any loose threads with sharp embroidery scissors; avoid pulling at the stitches, as this may compromise the structural seam design.

  • Graceful midi-length movement

  • Limited stretch compared to jersey-knit garments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this garment uses a delicate viscose-linen blend, proper care is essential to maintain its structure and finish. It is recommended to follow the garment's internal care label specifically regarding wash temperatures and agitation levels. To maintain the pleats and the integrity of the topstitching, avoid tumble drying; instead, hang the dress to dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area to prevent fiber degradation from direct sunlight. When storing, ensure the dress is hung on a wide-shouldered hanger to prevent shoulder distortion or creases in the flutter sleeve ruffles. For minor wrinkles, a low-heat steamer is preferable to a heavy iron to protect the texture of the linen blend.
