FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

This dress is ideal for special evening events, formal gatherings, or as a sophisticated option for an elevated everyday look where a refined dress code is desired.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the Pinko brand's official sizing chart, paying close attention to the UK dress size measurements. It is recommended to measure your bust, waist, and hips for accurate selection.

Can the V-neck opening be adjusted?

The V-neck opening is a fixed design feature of the dress and cannot be adjusted without tailoring.

What are the main materials used in the dress?

The dress features a bi-material construction: the top is made from a fluid silk-blend fabric, and the skirt is made from a stretch technical viscose full Milano-knit fabric.

How should I care for the metal star buttons?

Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners directly on the buttons. When cleaning the garment, ensure they are protected from excessive heat or friction during washing and ironing.

Does the dress have pockets?

The product description does not mention the presence of pockets. This dress features zip and keyhole fastenings.

What type of fit does this dress have?

This is a fitted style dress that is more cinched on the sides, creating a tailored and sculpted silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Dress feels too tight on the sides.

The dress is designed with a fitted silhouette that is cinched on the sides. Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the brand's sizing chart. If the fit is still uncomfortable, consider professional tailoring for minor adjustments.

Fabric appears creased after storage.

Gently steam the garment on a low setting, ensuring the iron does not directly touch the fabric. For creases on the silk-blend top, use a cool iron on the reverse side. For the viscose skirt, a medium heat iron on the reverse side should suffice. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Ribbons on cuffs are tangled.

Carefully untangle the ribbons by hand. Avoid pulling forcefully. If necessary, use a fine-toothed comb gently on the ribbons.
