Product Information
Full details
The New Look Bardot Ruched Waist Midi Dress is designed for adults seeking an elegant yet comfortable outfit for evening events, dinners, or parties. Its primary benefit is the figure-skimming silhouette that provides a polished look with minimal effort, thanks to the slip-on design. One caveat to keep in mind is that the velvet material requires specific care to maintain its texture and appearance over time.

FAQs
What is the material composition?
This dress is made from a high-quality velvet fabric.
Is this machine washable?
Due to the delicate nature of velvet, we recommend hand washing or professional dry cleaning to maintain the texture.
Does the dress have a zipper?
No, it features a convenient slip-on design for effortless wear.
Is the neckline adjustable?
The Bardot neckline is fixed in its off-shoulder style; ensure you select the correct size for the best fit across the shoulders.
What kind of undergarments work best?
A strapless or convertible bra is recommended to maintain the clean lines of the off-shoulder neckline.
How long is the dress?
The dress is a midi length, typically falling below the knee.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears crushed or flattened
Use a handheld garment steamer at a safe distance to gently release fibers without touching the velvet surface.
Dress sliding down
Ensure the fit is correct for your size; if necessary, use fashion tape along the inner edge of the Bardot neckline for extra security.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your dress, keep these care instructions in mind. Because the dress is made of velvet, avoid high-heat ironing directly on the fabric as it can crush the pile. If wrinkles occur, use a garment steamer held at a distance. When storing, it is best to hang the dress on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the neckline and prevent unwanted creases. Given the off-shoulder design, choosing a strapless or multi-way bra is recommended for the most seamless look.
