FAQs
Is the fabric sheer?
The dress is made from cotton voile, which is naturally lightweight. While breathable, some may prefer to wear it with a neutral-colored slip if they find the fabric too translucent.
Can I put this dress in the tumble dryer?
It is not recommended. The heat from a tumble dryer can shrink the organic cotton and damage the delicate lace trims.
How does the sizing run?
The dress is designed with an elasticated waist and a loose, floaty skirt, generally providing a true-to-size fit with extra room for comfort.
What does GOTS-certified mean?
Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) certification ensures that the cotton is grown without harmful chemicals and produced under socially responsible working conditions.
Is this dress suitable for formal events?
It is designed primarily for casual and semi-casual warm-weather occasions. Its relaxed, floaty nature is best suited for daytime or outdoor settings.
Does the dress have pockets?
The design focuses on a floaty, tiered silhouette, so it does not typically include pockets to maintain its streamlined drape.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears wrinkled after storage
Use a fabric steamer on a low setting to gently release creases without damaging the cotton.
Elastic waist feels tight or uncomfortable
Ensure the waist seam is positioned at the narrowest part of your torso; the elastic is designed to stretch, but avoid over-stretching during storage.
Lace trim looks frayed
Carefully trim any loose threads with sharp fabric scissors; avoid pulling, which may cause the lace to unravel further.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Seasalt Cornwall Wild Lily Dress, it is recommended to follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Wash on a gentle or delicate cycle with like colors, or hand wash in cool water to preserve the lace trims.
- Drying: Air dry naturally on a hanger to maintain the shape of the tiered hem. Avoid tumble drying, as excessive heat can compromise the organic cotton fibers.
- Ironing: Use a cool iron if necessary. Because the fabric is a lightweight voile, steaming is often a more effective and safer way to remove wrinkles than traditional pressing.
- Storage: Store hanging to prevent deep creases in the tiered sections of the skirt.
