To wear this dress, simply put it on like a regular shirt. The self - tie belt can be adjusted to your preferred tightness. For a daytime look, you can accessorize it with understated jewelry and a woven tote. When it comes to maintenance, it's recommended to wash it in cold water and tumble dry on low. Avoid using harsh detergents as they may fade the indigo print. Also, iron on a low - heat setting to keep it looking its best.
