Troubleshooting

Shirred cuffs feel too tight

Gently stretch the fabric around the cuff area to relax the elastic, or ensure the sleeves are not pushed too far up the forearm.

Fabric looks wrinkled

Use a low-heat steam setting or a cool iron to gently smooth out the fabric, taking care to avoid direct contact with the elasticated shirring.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Dorothy Perkins floral dress in peak condition, always follow the garment's internal care label. Due to the delicate nature of the floral pattern and the shirred detailing, it is recommended to wash the dress in a laundry bag on a gentle cycle. Avoid high-heat tumble drying to preserve the elasticity of the shirred cuffs and the integrity of the fabric. The dress fits true to standard UK size 14 expectations, making it compatible with most casual or semi-formal accessory pairings.
