Parent FAQs

Q: What size should I order?

A: Check the size chart for bust, waist, and hip measurements — this dress is fitted through the bodice and hips, so accurate measuring matters. The mesh has minimal stretch; if you're between sizes, size up for comfort.

Q: Can I wear this over regular clothes or does it need a slip?

A: The dress comes with a burgundy lining underneath the sheer beaded mesh, so you're covered. You may want to wear seamless underwear as the mesh shows skin tone through the beading at certain angles.

Q: How do I wash this? Is the beading secure?

A: Hand-wash cold or dry-clean only — the beadwork is dense and the fringe is delicate. Hang to dry, never wring or tumble. The sequins are sewn onto mesh, so treat it gently to avoid snagging.

Q: Is this suitable for a work costume event or just parties?

A: Absolutely works for work 1920s theme days, especially if your office does decade dress-up or historical costume events. The V-neck is elegant rather than revealing, and the knee-length cut keeps it office-appropriate.

Care: Hand-wash cold or dry-clean. Hang to dry, store flat to protect beadwork.
