To wear this dress, simply slip it on over your head. Adjust the self - tie belt around your waist to your desired tightness for a more flattering silhouette. You can style it with sandals for a casual look or dress it up with heels for a more formal occasion. When it comes to maintenance, machine wash it in cold water with like colors. Use a gentle cycle to keep the fabric in good condition. Avoid using bleach as it may damage the print. Hang it to dry to prevent any shrinkage. And don't forget to iron it on a low - heat setting if needed to keep it looking its best.
