The website photo doesn’t do this dress justice. The silk has a brushed, almost mattified finish, which still has some shine but looks richer and has more depth than your average silk or satin.
This is the most comfortable dress I own, and yet it still hugs all the right places and fits where it sits, with no need for tweaking or fiddling.
The first night I wore it, I got ice cream down the front, and was worried that I’d struggle to wash it out as it was a sticky mess, but I just leant over the sink while still wearing the dress and washed it out with some shampoo and it was dry within 10 minutes!
The perfect, breathable dress for humid weather, which makes you feel comfortable and cool, but with all the glamour of what would usually be an uncomfortable dress.
