FAQs
What material is the dress made of?
The dress is crafted from woven viscose, which is known for its lightweight and breathable qualities.
How is the fit of the dress?
The dress features a relaxed fit through the bodice and a midi-length skirt with a subtle flare. A self-tie belt is included to cinch the waist and create a more defined silhouette.
Can this dress be worn for formal occasions?
While versatile, this dress is primarily designed for casual daytime occasions. It can be dressed up with heels and accessories, but may not be suitable for very formal events.
What are the sleeve details?
The dress has three-quarter length sleeves with buttoned cuffs.
How should I care for this dress to ensure longevity?
It is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle at a low temperature with similar colors. Avoid tumble drying and iron on a low heat setting. Lay flat or hang to dry.

Sizing can vary. We recommend referring to the specific size chart provided by Dorothy Perkins for the most accurate fit. This guide pertains to Size 18.
What kind of shoes pair well with this dress?
The dress pairs well with a variety of footwear, including trainers for a casual look, flat sandals for everyday wear, or heeled sandals for a more elevated style.
Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after washing
Ensure you are using a gentle wash cycle and low spin speed. Iron on a low heat setting, preferably while slightly damp or using a steam function. Consider air-drying flat rather than on a hanger.
Belt does not stay tied securely
Ensure the belt is tied tightly. If the fabric is very smooth, you may need to double-knot or adjust the tie periodically throughout the day.
Color fading after a few washes
Always wash with similar colors and use a detergent designed for colored fabrics. Washing at lower temperatures (30°C) also helps preserve color.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine washable on a gentle cycle with similar colors. It is recommended to wash at a low temperature (e.g., 30°C).
- Drying: Avoid tumble drying. Lay the garment flat to dry or hang it on a padded hanger to maintain its shape.
- Ironing: Iron on a low heat setting. It may be beneficial to iron the dress while it is slightly damp or use a steam iron to remove wrinkles effectively, given the nature of viscose fabric.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Hanging is recommended to prevent creasing.
