FAQs

What is the primary material used in this dress?

This garment is crafted from high-quality polyester.

Where is the Vivienne Westwood Chichi dress manufactured?

Every piece is proudly made in Italy.

Does this dress require dry cleaning?

Yes, due to the delicate draping and internal bustier structure, professional dry cleaning is recommended.

How do I ensure the correct fit for the bustier?

We recommend measuring your chest and waist precisely and comparing them against standard UK sizing charts, as the bustier provides a structured, non-stretch fit.

Can I iron this dress if it wrinkles?

Avoid direct ironing on the draped sections; use a steamer at a safe distance or consult a professional cleaner to prevent damage to the fabric structure.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or difficult to close

Ensure the fabric edges are clear of the zipper track and pull gently from the base; do not force.

Bustier feels too tight or uncomfortable

Since the bustier is structural, ensure the dress size corresponds correctly to your measurements; if it persists, consider a professional tailor for minor adjustments.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated and iconic Vivienne Westwood silhouette
  • Internal bustier provides excellent structure and support
  • Concealed zipper for a seamless aesthetic
  • Versatile yet bold plaid pattern suitable for varied formal events

Cons

  • Requires professional dry cleaning to maintain fabric quality
  • Polyester fabric may lack the breathability of natural fibers
  • Specific sizing needs careful measurement due to the structured bodice

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your dress, proper care is essential. Given the complex draping and bustier construction, it is recommended to have the item professionally dry cleaned. When storing, hang the dress on a padded hanger to prevent the weight of the fabric from distorting the drape or the bustier structure. Avoid direct sunlight and high humidity, which can degrade the polyester fibers and alter the color vibrancy over time.
