FAQs
Is the fabric stretchy?
The dress is made from polyester, which typically offers minimal natural stretch. The tailored fit relies on the cut rather than fabric elasticity.
Can I tumble dry this dress?
It is not recommended. Polyester can lose its shape or develop static when exposed to high heat in a tumble dryer. Air drying on a hanger is best.
What is the best way to clean stains?
Spot clean the area with mild detergent and cool water. Avoid harsh scrubbing to prevent damaging the fabric texture.
Does the dress require a slip?
The polyester fabric is generally opaque, but you may choose to wear a slip if you prefer extra smoothness or coverage.
How should I store the dress to avoid wrinkles?
Store on a high-quality hanger in a garment bag to protect the delicate gathers from snagging on other items.
Troubleshooting
Side zip feels difficult to close
Ensure the dress is fully smoothed out and the internal fabric flap is not caught in the zipper teeth before pulling gently.
Buttons appearing strained at the bust
This indicates the size may be too small for your specific frame; ensure the empire seam is sitting correctly under the bust to alleviate tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nieve Dress, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Given the tailored nature of the bodice, ensure the garment is tried on with the intended undergarments to check the tension at the buttons and zipper.
- Cleaning: As this dress is crafted from polyester, it is generally machine washable on a gentle cycle, though hand washing is recommended to preserve the integrity of the buttons and delicate gathers.
- Ironing: Use a low-heat setting on your iron to smooth out any creases; always test a small, inconspicuous area of the fabric first.
- Storage: Hang the dress on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder distortion and keep the side zip closed while in the wardrobe to maintain the dress shape.
