FAQs

What is the primary material of the gown?

The gown is made from a blend of 61% viscose and 39% acetate in a crêpe back satin weave.

Is this machine washable?

No, this garment must be dry cleaned only due to the delicate nature of the embroidery.

Does the dress have any stretch?

The fabric composition is largely non-stretch, so it is recommended to follow the size chart closely for the best fit.

Where is this gown manufactured?

This garment is made in Italy.

What type of embroidery is used?

The dress features floral-patterned bugle beads and crystals inspired by the McQueen archives.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty zipping the back closure

Ensure the gown is properly aligned on your body and check that no lining fabric is caught in the zip teeth before pulling upward.

Loose bead or thread on embroidery

Do not pull on the thread. Take the garment to a professional tailor who specializes in couture or evening wear for secure re-attachment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the gown remains in pristine condition, it must be dry cleaned professionally. Do not attempt to wash this item in a home machine or hand wash it, as water exposure could damage the crystal and bugle bead embroidery. When storing, keep the dress in a breathable garment bag, preferably hanging, to prevent the fabric from creasing or the embroidery from sustaining pressure damage. Since the gown features a standard back zip, ensure the surrounding fabric is cleared before zipping to prevent catching the delicate lining.
