To wear this dress, simply put it on over your head. The self - tie belt can be adjusted to your preferred tightness to show off your waist. For a daytime look, wear it with sandals and a coordinating bag. When it comes to maintenance, you can machine - wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle. Hang it to dry to avoid shrinking. Avoid using bleach as it may damage the fabric. Keep it away from sharp objects to prevent snags.
