What occasions is this dress suitable for?

How should I care for this dress?
Professional dry cleaning is recommended. Avoid washing or tumble drying.
Does the dress run true to size?
The dress is designed with a figure-hugging silhouette. It is recommended to consult the size guide and consider the stretch fabric when choosing your size. If you are between sizes, sizing up might offer more comfort.
What type of undergarments are best with this dress?
Seamless undergarments are recommended to maintain a smooth silhouette, especially given the figure-hugging cut and high neckline.
Troubleshooting
Dress feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The stretch fabric offers some give, but the figure-hugging nature means precise sizing is important. Consider shapewear for a smoother line if needed.
Cape drapes unevenly
Ensure the dress is hung properly on a suitable hanger. When wearing, adjust the drape over the shoulders to ensure even flow. The fabric has natural weight that should help it settle correctly.
Fabric appears creased after storage
Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period to allow creases to fall out. If persistent, use a cool iron on the reverse side, as recommended in the care instructions.
