Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Roman Petite Shirred Waist Dress in optimal condition, ensure you follow the machine wash instructions on the internal garment tag. Because the dress is made of cotton, it is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle to preserve the integrity of the shirring and the elasticity of the cuffs. Avoid high-heat tumble drying to prevent shrinking; instead, air dry the dress on a hanger to minimize wrinkles. It is true to size, so you should select your standard UK dress size for the best fit. Always check the length measurement of 122cm against your personal height to ensure the hem falls as desired.
