FAQs

Does this dress come in other colors?

This specific pleated detail midi dress is currently offered in a classic black colorway, known for its versatility and formal appeal.

Is the dress true to size?

The dress is cut for tall frames. It is recommended to consult the Long Tall Sally size guide and compare your measurements to the UK size 16 specifications provided.

Can I put this in the tumble dryer?

It is generally advised to air dry the garment. Tumble drying can damage the pleated fabric texture and cause unnecessary shrinkage.

What type of bra works best?

A well-fitted, supportive strapless bra is essential for the bardot neckline to maintain the intended silhouette.

What occasions is this suitable for?

The elegant design makes it perfect for formal events, weddings, cocktail hours, or sophisticated dinner parties.

Troubleshooting

Dress sliding down

Ensure you are using a high-quality, adhesive-lined strapless bra or specialized fashion tape to secure the bodice to the skin.

Pleats losing definition

Avoid high-heat ironing directly on the pleats. Use a garment steamer from a slight distance to relax wrinkles without flattening the pleated texture.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated strapless bardot style
  • Tailored specifically for tall body types
  • Wrinkle-resistant polyester fabric
  • Versatile length for various formal events

Cons

  • Requires strapless support garment
  • Limited availability in non-black colorways
  • Polyester material lacks the natural breathability of cotton or silk

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep the dress in pristine condition, always check the internal care label. Given the polyester composition, it is generally machine washable on a gentle cycle, though hand washing or dry cleaning is recommended to protect the integrity of the pleated sections. When storing, avoid folding the pleats tightly; hanging the dress on a padded hanger will help the pleats retain their structure. For compatibility, ensure you have a supportive, non-slip strapless bra to match the bardot neckline, as the cut leaves the shoulders and upper chest exposed.
