To wear this dress, simply button it up from the front and tie the self - tie belt around your waist for a flattering look. It's great for casual outings or semi - formal events. When it comes to maintenance, it's best to follow the care instructions on the label. Usually, a gentle machine wash in cold water is a good option. Avoid using harsh detergents that might damage the seersucker fabric. Hang it to dry to keep its shape. And remember, if you want to make the striped print the center of attention, go for understated accessories.
