FAQs
What material is the Alma Paisley Midi Dress made from?
The dress is crafted from a soft, lightweight fabric specifically chosen for its flowy drape and warm-weather comfort.
Is this dress machine washable?
Yes, it is machine washable, but we recommend using a gentle, cool cycle to maintain the fabric quality and the integrity of the shirring.
Does the waist have a tie or belt?
No, the waist is defined by the shirred bodice and integrated pleating rather than a separate belt or tie.
Is the dress true to size?
The dress is generally considered true to size. The shirred bodice provides some natural stretch to accommodate different body shapes.
Can I wear this dress for formal events?
While its style is best suited for casual to smart-casual occasions, it can be styled with elevated accessories for semi-formal summer gatherings.
Does the dress have pockets?
The product description focuses on the bodice and print design; check the specific garment interior, as pockets are not standard on this model.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears wrinkled after storage
Use a cool iron or a garment steamer on a low setting to gently remove wrinkles without damaging the printed pattern.
Shirring feels tight or uncomfortable
Ensure the bodice is positioned correctly on the torso; avoid over-stretching the elastic during dressing to maintain longevity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your garment, always follow the care label instructions found inside the dress. It is recommended to wash on a cool, gentle cycle to protect the delicate print and shirring elasticity. Avoid harsh detergents or high-heat tumble drying, as these can degrade the fabric softness. The dress is a standard UK size 8, fitting true to size for most, though the shirred bodice allows for some flexibility in fit. It is compatible with a wide range of footwear, from flat leather slides to heeled wedges.
