Professional dry cleaning is required to protect the integrity of the satin fabric and the draped construction.
It is not recommended. Direct heat from an iron can damage the finish of the satin.
Because of the one-shoulder design, a strapless, high-support bra or a specialized adhesive bra is recommended.
The dress is made from satin, which typically has minimal stretch; it is designed for a structured, tailored fit.
No, the cape sleeve is an integrated part of the architectural design.
As this is a tailored maxi dress, we recommend checking the size guide measurements against your bust and waist to ensure the waistband sits correctly.
Use a professional garment steamer at a low setting or hang the dress in a steamy bathroom to allow creases to relax naturally.
Consult with a professional tailor to have the hem adjusted while ensuring the asymmetric line remains consistent.
Do not attempt to wash at home; take the garment to a professional dry cleaner who specializes in delicate fabrics.
To maintain the structural integrity and sheen of the satin, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended. Avoid exposing the fabric to direct steam or heavy ironing, as this can leave water marks or alter the drape of the cape. When storing, ensure the dress is kept on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulder and prevent deep creasing. If the dress arrives with minor shipping wrinkles, a light professional steam press is preferred over home ironing. Always check the garment against your specific height to ensure the hem meets your footwear appropriately.
