FAQs
What material is this dress made of?
This dress is crafted from high-quality polyester, selected for its durability and structural integrity.
Is the fabric stretchy?
No, the fabric is a standard weave and does not feature significant elastic properties, so it maintains a crisp, structured fit.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is not recommended to tumble dry this dress, as heat can damage the fabric and the strap details; air drying is best.
How should I choose my size?
This dress follows standard UK sizing for a regular fit. If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing up to ensure comfort across the chest.
Is the neckline adjustable?
While the square neckline itself is fixed, the tie straps allow you to subtly adjust how high or low the bodice sits on your shoulders.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel too loose or too tight
Adjust the tie-strap tension before fastening to ensure the bodice sits correctly against the chest.
Fabric appears slightly wrinkled after storage
Use a garment steamer on a low setting or hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for several minutes to allow natural fiber relaxation.
Pros and Cons
Pros

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress remains in peak condition, always follow the garment's internal care label. Given the delicate nature of the tie straps, it is recommended to wash the item inside a mesh laundry bag if using a machine's delicate cycle, or opt for hand washing in cool water. Hang drying is preferred to preserve the shape of the bodice and prevent any heat-related damage to the polyester fibers. Since this model comes in specific UK sizes, refer to your standard size for a regular fit; if you prefer a looser drape, consider sizing up.
