Questions about this piece
Does polyester satin wrinkle?
Less than silk satin does, and that is the practical difference between the two. Polyester springs back from a crease, so folds picked up in a suitcase usually drop out after an hour on a hanger. What does set is a hard fold pressed in under weight, and the fix for that is steam rather than a hot iron, because high heat glazes polyester and leaves a shine you cannot brush out. This dress is satin woven from polyester, so keep the iron low and go by the care label.
How do you tie a neck scarf?
Three ways cover most of it. A knot at the side of the throat keeps the ends short and tidy. A loose loop with the ends tucked under sits flatter, which is what you want under a jacket. Left untied down the front, it reads more like a sash than a scarf. This dress comes with its own neck scarf, so there is a fourth option: skip the neck, tie it at your wrist or around a bag handle, and the two still match.
What comes with this dress, and how should it fit?
The neck scarf comes with it, cut from the same champagne satin, so it matches the dress exactly instead of almost, which is the part you cannot count on when you add a scarf from somewhere else. The dress itself is a sleeveless slip silhouette in S, M and L, in that one champagne. A slip is cut to skim rather than to hold you in, so the size you take is mostly about how closely the satin falls over the hip.
