FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is ideal for sophisticated daywear, including lunch dates, family brunches, gallery visits, and other social gatherings where a polished look is desired.

How should I care for the wool material?

It is recommended to hand wash in cold water with a mild wool detergent and lay flat to dry. Alternatively, professional dry cleaning is suitable.

What kind of undergarments work best with this dress?

Seamless undergarments are recommended to maintain the smooth, sculpted silhouette created by the bandage knit construction and form-fitting design.

Can this dress be worn in cooler weather?

Yes, the midi length and wool material offer some warmth. For colder weather, it can be effectively layered with a structured blazer or a smart jacket.

What does 'bandage knit' mean in terms of fit?

Bandage knit refers to a fabric construction that is typically stretchy and designed to hug the body, providing a sculpted and form-fitting silhouette.

Are there other sizes available for this dress?

Yes, this dress is available in other sizes. Please refer to the product listing for available size options.

How do I style the asymmetric neckline?

The asymmetric neckline is a design feature. It pairs well with delicate jewelry that doesn't overpower the dress's clean lines. Avoid overly chunky necklaces that might detract from the neckline's intended aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Dress feels too tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Bandage knit is designed to be form-fitting; consider wearing seamless undergarments for a smoother appearance.

Wool material feels itchy.

Some individuals may be sensitive to wool. Wearing a fine-knit base layer underneath can provide a barrier. Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions, as this can soften the fibers.

Dress loses its shape after washing.

Ensure you are following the specific care instructions, particularly regarding washing temperature and drying method. Laying flat to dry is crucial for maintaining the garment's structure.

Strap detail appears uneven.

Verify that the dress is being worn correctly and is sitting smoothly on the body. Minor adjustments in fit can sometimes affect the appearance of asymmetric details. If the issue persists and appears to be a manufacturing defect, contact customer service.
