Product Information

Full details

The & Other Stories Polka Dot Mini Dress is designed for adult women who appreciate a blend of vintage-inspired charm and modern, fluid silhouettes. Its primary benefit lies in the highly adjustable fit offered by the front drawstring and gathered bust details, which allow for a personalized, flattering shape. While this piece offers great versatility for casual or semi-formal settings, potential buyers should note that the polyester material requires specific care to maintain the integrity of the fabric's drape and movement.

FAQs

Is the fabric prone to wrinkling?

Polyester is generally resistant to wrinkling, making this an excellent choice for travel or long days out.

How should I measure for the right size?

The dress follows standard UK sizing. Focus on the bust measurement as the primary fit factor, as the drawstring provides some leeway.

Can this dress be machine washed?

Yes, it is machine washable, but we recommend using a mesh garment bag to protect the delicate shoulder straps and gathers.

What is the length of the dress?

As a mini dress, it typically hits above the knee, though the exact positioning will depend on your height and how the drawstring is adjusted.

Does the dress have a lining?

The dress is designed with a focus on fluid movement, prioritizing a lightweight feel that works well in multiple seasons.

Troubleshooting

Drawstring feels stuck

Gently massage the fabric around the eyelet and ensure the cord is not twisted before attempting to pull it again.

Static cling in the fabric

Use a light anti-static spray or lightly dampen the fabric to reduce cling caused by the polyester material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your garment, follow these guidelines:

Initial Fit: When first trying on the dress, utilize the front drawstring to find your preferred tension. Avoid pulling the drawstring too tightly to prevent stressing the fabric.
Cleaning: Because the dress is made of polyester, it is generally durable, but should be washed on a gentle cycle in cold water to protect the integrity of the gathers.
Drying: Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this may compromise the bias-cut drape. Laying flat to dry or using a low-heat setting is recommended.
Storage: Store on a hanger to maintain the shape of the straps and the flow of the skirt, or fold gently to avoid permanent creasing.
