FAQs

What material is this dress made of?

The dress is made from fluid Tencel woven fabric.

What does 'petite' sizing mean?

Petite sizing refers to garments specifically designed for individuals with a shorter torso and shorter limbs, typically meaning a shorter overall length and often adjusted sleeve and inseam lengths.

How should I care for the Tencel fabric?

Tencel is best cared for by hand washing or machine washing on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid bleach and tumble drying; instead, lay flat or hang to dry. Iron on a low setting.

Can this dress be worn for formal events?

Yes, the maxi length and striking pattern make it suitable for semi-formal events when styled with appropriate heels and accessories.

What is the 'Mono' colour family?

The 'Mono' colour family generally refers to black and white or shades of grey, creating a monochromatic or high-contrast palette. In this case, it refers to the black and white geometric pattern.

Does the dress have pockets?

The product description does not specify pockets, but shirt dresses often have side seam pockets. Please refer to product imagery or consult the retailer for confirmation.

What other sizes are available for this dress?

This specific listing is for Size 4. Related sibling products may be available in other sizes (e.g., 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16) and potentially different materials, listed under different MPNs.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after washing.

Iron on a low setting while damp, or hang to dry immediately after the wash cycle. Steaming can also help remove wrinkles.

Fabric feels stiff or loses its drape.

Ensure you are using a gentle wash cycle and cold water. Avoid harsh detergents and do not tumble dry. Hand washing can help preserve the fabric's softness.

Colour appears faded.

Wash inside out in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying. Ensure the garment is not exposed to harsh chemicals.
