To wear this dress, simply put it on over your head and adjust the self - tie waist to your desired fit. You can wear it on various occasions like parties or casual outings. When accessorizing, gold jewelry works great to match the gold in the floral print. For maintenance, it's best to machine wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using harsh detergents as they might damage the fabric. Hang it to dry instead of using a dryer to prevent shrinkage. If there are any wrinkles, you can use a low - heat iron to smooth them out.
