This midi-length garment features a structured bandage knit that contours the body, accented by dramatic chiffon puff sleeves and a fluted hem for graceful movement. While it offers a stunning silhouette, users should note that the delicate silk material requires careful handling and professional maintenance to preserve its texture and shape.

Yes, the midi length and elegant design make it ideal for weddings, though the material is best suited for temperate climates.
The bandage knit is designed to be form-defining, so it offers some controlled stretch but is intended to be firm and structured.
Professional dry cleaning is required to protect the silk composition and the structural integrity of the knit.
The dress is approximately 128cm in length, providing a midi silhouette that falls below the knee.
Because the sleeves and hem are quite dramatic, simple, understated jewelry and neutral-toned heels are recommended.
The chiffon sleeves are lightweight and breathable, while the bandage knit is more substantial to provide its signature structure.
Avoid wearing bracelets or rings with sharp prongs that can catch on the delicate chiffon or the fine-gauge knit weave.
Use seamless, laser-cut undergarments to maintain the clean lines of the bandage knit fabric.
Use a handheld steamer on a low heat setting, keeping it at least six inches away from the fabric to gently release creases.
To maintain the integrity of the garment, store the dress on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder distortion from the sleeves. Given that the bodice is constructed from a structured bandage knit, avoid hanging it for extended periods if you notice any fabric sagging; folding it in acid-free tissue paper is a safer long-term storage solution. For cleaning, because the garment contains silk elements, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to protect the fabric's sheen and the structural integrity of the knit. Compatibility with undergarments is best achieved by choosing seamless, nude-toned options to ensure the bandage knit remains smooth against the skin.
