FAQs

Can I iron this velvet dress?

No, you should never use a flat iron on velvet as it will crush the pile. Use a steamer from the inside only.

Is the dress true to size?

The dress is designed to be fitted. Please refer to standard Adrianna Papell sizing charts for your specific UK size.

Does the dress have a lining?

Yes, it is constructed with a comfortable lining to ensure the dress hangs correctly and feels smooth against the skin.

Is the thigh-high slit too revealing?

The slit is designed to be elegant, providing a reveal while moving, which is common in professional evening gown construction.

What undergarments are best for this dress?

Due to the one-shoulder design and fitted mermaid silhouette, seamless, nude-colored undergarments or shapewear are recommended.

Is the dress suitable for outdoor winter events?

Velvet provides moderate warmth, but because of the one-shoulder cut and the slit, it is best layered with a coordinating wrap or faux fur stole for outdoor transitions.

Troubleshooting

Visible compression marks on the velvet pile

Gently steam the affected area from the inside of the garment to help the fabric fibers stand back up.

The fabric feels static

Lightly mist the lining of the dress with a fabric-safe anti-static spray, ensuring you do not spray the velvet exterior directly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Adrianna Papell dress remains in pristine condition, proper care is essential:

  • Cleaning: This garment is made of luxury velvet and should be professionally dry cleaned only. Avoid machine washing or hand washing as this can damage the pile of the velvet.
  • Storage: Hang the dress on a high-quality, padded hanger to prevent shoulder distortion or creases in the fabric. Use a garment bag to protect it from dust and pressure marks.
  • Wrinkles: If the dress arrives with minor wrinkles from shipping, use a professional garment steamer from the inside of the fabric at a distance. Never press a traditional iron directly onto the velvet surface.
  • Compatibility: The dress is available in a variety of UK sizes ranging from 8 to 18, ensuring a tailored fit for different body types.
