FAQs

What makes this dress part of the W Sustain category?

The dress is included in the W Sustain category because it is made from sustainable materials, specifically a blend of organic cotton, hemp, and linen.

How should I best style this dress for different occasions?

For a casual look, pair it with sandals and a tote. For a slightly more dressed-up feel, try ankle boots and a light jacket. The keyhole neckline can be a focal point.

Is the fit true to size?

The dress has a wide and flowy fit, designed for a relaxed silhouette. It's recommended to consult the size chart for specific measurements and consider your preferred fit.

What is the fabric composition?

The dress is composed of 50% Organic cotton, 26% Hemp, 8% Linen, 12% Recycled polyamide, and 4% Recycled polyester.

Can this dress be worn in warmer weather?

Yes, the blend of organic cotton, hemp, and linen is breathable, making it suitable for warmer conditions, though the heavy knit may be more comfortable in moderate to cooler temperatures.

How do I care for the knitted fabric?

It is recommended to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent and lay flat to dry. Avoid bleach and high heat.

Troubleshooting

Dress feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and mild detergent. Laying flat to dry and avoiding high heat ironing should help maintain softness.

Color seems to fade.

Always wash with similar colors and use a detergent free of harsh bleaching agents. Cold water washing helps preserve color vibrancy.

Fabric appears to be stretching out of shape.

Ensure the garment is laid flat to dry rather than hung, as hanging can cause heavier knits to lose their shape. Check that the wash cycle is gentle.
