Sizing and Fit Guide
This dress runs true to size with a tailored fit through the bodice and waist. The A-line skirt provides comfortable room through the hips while maintaining the flattering silhouette that defines the fit and flare style.
Measurements and Fit Tips
For the best fit, measure your bust, waist, and hips and compare to our size chart. The stretch fabric allows for slight size variation, but we recommend choosing your normal dress size for the intended fitted bodice look. The knee-length hemline falls approximately 2-3 inches above the knee on most body types.
Styling and Occasions
This versatile dress works beautifully for cocktail parties, wedding guest attire, dinner dates, and professional events. Pair with heels and statement jewelry for evening occasions, or dress down with flats and a cardigan for daytime events.
The sophisticated design complements both our cocktail dress collection and formal dress selection, making it easy to coordinate with other pieces in your wardrobe. The timeless silhouette ensures this dress remains a go-to choice for years to come.
Care Instructions
Machine wash cold on gentle cycle with like colors to maintain the fabric’s integrity and color vibrancy. Use mild detergent and avoid bleach or fabric softeners that can break down the stretch fibers.
Hang to dry or tumble dry on low heat to prevent shrinking. If needed, iron on low heat using the polyester setting. For best results, store the dress on a hanger to maintain its shape and prevent wrinkles between wears.
