FAQs

Is this dress suitable for cold weather?

Yes, the full sleeves and maxi length offer good coverage, but we recommend layering with thermal undergarments or a coat for very cold temperatures.

Can the front tie be adjusted?

The front tie is primarily a decorative feature to add a dainty finishing touch to the scoop neckline.

What kind of footwear works best with this dress?

Boots of varying heights pair excellently with this dress, especially to highlight the unique handkerchief hemline.

How should I clean the dress?

Use a gentle machine wash in cold water and hang to dry to maintain the fabric's pattern and fit.

Is the fabric heavy or light?

The dress is designed as a winter maxi, utilizing fabric that balances a soft feel with enough weight for seasonal warmth.

Does the dress fit true to size?

Yes, it is designed with a flattering silhouette that typically aligns with standard UK sizing.

Troubleshooting

Sleeve cuffs feeling too tight

The elasticated cuffs are designed for flexibility; gently stretch them over your wrists to find a comfortable resting position.

Hemline catching on shoes

Consider wearing shoes with a slight heel to raise the handkerchief hem away from the floor or ensure the dress is tailored to your height.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the quality of the fabric and the integrity of the blue check print, follow the care label instructions provided with the garment. Generally, machine washing on a delicate cycle in cool water is recommended to prevent shrinkage or color fading. Avoid tumble drying; instead, hang the dress to air dry to preserve the shape of the elasticated cuffs and the drape of the hem. When storing, hanging the dress is preferred over folding to keep the maxi length wrinkle-free.
