FAQs

What material is the dress made from?

The dress is crafted from polyester, known for its durability and wrinkle resistance.

How does the dress fit?

It is designed with a regular fit, which offers a standard, comfortable shape that is neither too tight nor too loose.

Is this dress suitable for formal events?

Its polka dot pattern leans towards a casual or smart-casual aesthetic, making it perfect for brunches, dinners, or semi-formal daytime events.

Can I put this dress in the tumble dryer?

It is recommended to avoid the tumble dryer to prevent potential shrinkage or damage to the fabric; air drying is the best method.

Does the tie-front detail affect the neckline?

The tie-front is primarily decorative but adds a stylish focus to the front of the dress without compromising the integrity of the round neckline.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after storage

Lightly steam the garment or hang it in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes to let the wrinkles release naturally.

Static cling in dry weather

Lightly mist the inside of the garment with water or use a dedicated anti-static spray.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

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

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cold-water cycle or hand wash to protect the fabric fibers.
  2. Drying: Air dry by hanging the dress on a padded hanger away from direct sunlight to prevent potential color fading.
  3. Ironing: Use a low heat setting if ironing is necessary, or use a fabric steamer to gently remove wrinkles without applying direct pressure to the tie detail.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place; using a garment bag will help keep the dress dust-free between seasonal uses.
