FAQs
Can I machine wash this dress?
It is strongly recommended to dry clean this item to ensure the velvet texture remains soft and untarnished.
Is the dress true to size?
Yes, it is designed with a regular fit, so you should select your standard UK dress size.
Does the dress have a lining?
The dress is designed to maintain a clean silhouette, but please check the internal garment tag for specific lining material details.
How do I avoid creasing the velvet?
Always hang the dress on a padded hanger and avoid pressing heavy items against it in your closet.
Can I wear a standard bra with the low V-back?
Due to the deep V-cut, a standard bra may be visible; we recommend using adhesive cups or a low-back converter strap for a seamless look.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears crushed or flattened.
Use a garment steamer from a safe distance to lift the fibers, or hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes.
Lint or dust on the surface.
Use a velvet-specific brush or a soft clothing brush, stroking in the direction of the fabric pile.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your dress in optimal condition, always check the internal care label before cleaning. Due to the velvet composition, it is highly recommended to dry clean the garment to preserve the pile and color depth. Avoid folding the dress for long-term storage; instead, hang it on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder bumps and fabric creasing. If the garment becomes slightly wrinkled, use a handheld steamer from a distance to gently release the creases, avoiding direct contact with the iron, which can crush or burn the velvet fibers.
