FAQs

Is this dress true to size?

The dress is designed as a petite-cut UK 12. If you prefer a looser fit, consider your standard size, but be aware of the petite tailoring.

Can I wear this over trousers?

Yes, the button-through front allows you to wear it partially open, making it an excellent piece for layering over wide-leg trousers.

What kind of shoes match this dress?

It is highly versatile; strappy heels work for formal events, while white trainers or flats are perfect for a casual, laid-back look.

How should I clean this garment?

Always check the care label, but generally, a gentle cycle wash is recommended to protect the woven material and the print.

Is the waist adjustable?

Yes, the dress features an integrated drawstring waist that lets you choose between a cinched look or a relaxed fit.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appearing wrinkled or creased

Use a low-heat steam iron on the reverse side of the fabric to smooth out wrinkles without damaging the floral print.

Drawstring not holding its position

Ensure the drawstring is tied with a secure double knot or ensure the internal stoppers are correctly engaged if applicable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile styling options for both dressy and casual occasions
  • Adjustable waist provides control over the fit and silhouette
  • Flowing fabric offers comfort for all-day wear
  • Easy to layer over trousers for a contemporary look

Cons

  • Petite-cut may not suit those with longer torsos or limbs
  • Button-through front requires attention to prevent gapping
  • Material may require specific laundering to maintain drape

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Wallis Floral Drawstring Shirt Dress maintains its structure and print quality, always follow the garment's internal care label. Due to the woven fabric, it is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle to preserve the flowy drape. The dress is best stored on a hanger to prevent heavy creasing of the collar and placket. When styling, be mindful that this is a petite-cut garment; those at the upper end of the UK size 12 range may find the fit closer to the body, whereas others may enjoy the extra room provided by the drawstring waist.
