How to wear: This dress is super versatile. You can wear it on a sunny day out at the beach with some sandals, or pair it with heels for a dinner date. It's great for casual summer strolls or more formal summer events. Just slip it on and you're good to go! Note: Although it's made of cotton, avoid over - stretching the fabric to keep its shape. Also, if you're wearing it in a very sunny area, you might want to add some sunscreen as the fabric is not sun - protective. Maintenance: You can choose to machine - wash or hand - wash this dress. Use a mild detergent and wash it in cold water to preserve the color. Hang it to dry to avoid shrinking. If it gets wrinkled, you can gently iron it on a low - heat setting.
