FAQs

Is the dress true to size?

The dress follows standard UK sizing. Because of its structured A-line fit, it is recommended to follow the provided size guide closely for your specific UK measurement.

Can this dress be machine washed?

No, this garment is crafted from premium velvet and taffeta and must be professionally dry cleaned to preserve the texture and structure.

What is a midaxi length?

Midaxi is a length that falls between a midi and a maxi dress, typically ending at the mid-to-lower calf.

Does the Bardot neckline have built-in support?

The dress features a structured design intended to hold the Bardot neckline in place, providing an elegant silhouette without requiring constant adjustment.

What events are suitable for this dress?

This piece is ideal for formal occasions including weddings, galas, charity dinners, and milestone celebrations.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the velvet fabric

Do not iron directly. Use a professional steamer at a safe distance or consult a dry cleaner to safely remove wrinkles.

Bows losing shape

Gently reshape the taffeta fabric with your hands. If significant distortion occurs, contact a professional tailor experienced with formal fabrics.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality construction and craftsmanship
  • Timeless and versatile midaxi length suitable for many formal events
  • Eye-catching design details like the taffeta bows
  • Flattering structure for diverse body types

Cons

  • Requires professional dry cleaning
  • Velvet fabric needs careful handling to avoid marking
  • Limited stretch due to the structured tailoring

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because of the delicate nature of velvet and the precision of the taffeta bow detailing, this garment should be handled with care. To maintain the structure, always hang the dress on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder indentation. Due to the material composition, this dress is strictly dry-clean only. When storing, ensure the dress is kept in a breathable garment bag to avoid dust accumulation on the velvet pile. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade the rich red color over time.
