The dress follows standard UK sizing; however, because it features a structured silhouette with limited stretch, it is recommended to refer to the official size guide if you are between sizes.
Do not use a standard iron on the velvet fabric as it will crush the pile and cause permanent shine. Use a steamer if necessary, or consult a professional cleaner.
Midaxi is a length that falls between midi and maxi, typically ending at the lower calf or just above the ankle.
Yes, the velvet weight provides warmth, though the structured fabric is best suited for cooler seasons or indoor climates.
Hang in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the rich red color over time.
Use a low-heat steamer held at a distance to gently fluff the fabric, taking care not to touch the velvet directly with heat.
Use a dedicated velvet brush or a clean, slightly damp microfiber cloth to gently sweep the pile in one direction.
Because of the delicate velvet construction, it is recommended to hang the dress on a wide, padded hanger to maintain the shape of the Bardot neckline and prevent shoulder indentations. Ensure the taffeta bows are stored without compression to avoid permanent creasing. Professional dry cleaning is highly recommended for this garment to protect the integrity of the velvet pile. Avoid contact with rough surfaces to prevent pulling the velvet fabric, and store in a breathable garment bag when not in use to protect it from dust and environmental wear.
