FAQs

What type of fabric is this dress made from?

The dress is made from woven viscose fabric.

How should I determine the best size?

Refer to the brand's sizing guide for specific measurements. Given this is a UK size 16, it corresponds to a specific set of body measurements.

Can this dress be worn in different seasons?

Yes, the long sleeves and midi length make it versatile for transitional seasons. It can be layered with a cardigan or jacket in cooler weather.

How do I style this dress for different occasions?

For day events, pair with sandals or flats. For evening or formal occasions, wear with heels and add accessories like a clutch and jewelry. The self-tie belt can be used to adjust the silhouette.

Is the floral print suitable for professional settings?

The dress can be adapted for smart-casual professional settings by pairing it with a blazer and heels. However, the bold print might be too prominent for very conservative workplaces.

What is the best way to care for the woven viscose fabric?

Hand wash or use a delicate machine cycle with cold water. Lay flat to dry and iron on a low heat setting. Avoid tumble drying.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after washing.

Gently iron the dress on a low heat setting while slightly damp. Ensure it is laid flat to dry completely.

Belt does not stay tied.

Ensure the fabric is not slippery from fabric softener. Tie a secure knot. If the fabric is inherently smooth, consider a double knot for extra security.

Print appears faded.

This is unlikely with proper care. If fading occurs, it may indicate improper washing. Use cold water and a mild detergent for future washes.
