Frequently Asked Questions
Does velvet wrinkle easily?
Velvet is prone to light crushing. Hang the dress rather than folding it, and steam gently if needed. Avoid ironing directly on velvet.
How does the high-stretch fabric affect fit?
The 5% elastane gives the fabric a high stretch — the dress is very comfortable and moulds to your figure. You can size down if you prefer a more fitted look.
How long is the maxi length?
The back length runs approximately 136–139 cm from shoulder depending on size — a full floor-length maxi.
Is this suitable for a wedding or black-tie event?
The velvet fabric and tiered silhouette make it a beautiful guest option for formal events, winter weddings and evening occasions.
How do I care for velvet?
Hand wash cold or dry clean. Hang to dry away from direct sunlight. Store hanging to prevent crushing.

Customer Reviews
Absolutely obsessed with this maxi dress. This maxi dress has become one of my most reached-for pieces. The fit feels flattering without being too tight and the fabric is comfortable enough to wear all day. This maxi dress feels very easy to dress up or down. I’ve worn it with simple trainers in the day and swapped to heeled boots and jewellery in the evening and it worked both times. It also layers nicely under coats without bunching up, which is ideal for UK weather. Overall it feels like something I’ll keep in my wardrobe for a long time.
