Hey ladies, I wore my new Julian today for the first time and my 6 month old nephew threw up milk on me. I just dropped it off at the dry cleaners to be cleaned but was wondering if anyone had any luck washing their DVF wraps in the washing machine with delicate cycle and woolite? I sometimes do this with my dry clean only items but since this was LITERALLY my new wrap, I played it safe with the dry cleaners. I was wondering if delicate/hand wash cycle would work in the future?

I'm torn. I think if u want honest opinions, i think the dress doesn't really flatter you. I can say this cause you rock all the other dvf dresses I've seen on this thread. This one isnt at "that" level. All your beautiful modeling fotos have set up higher expectations.

Also, thanks for the advice on the dress. Guess I just can't wear anything around baby until then.

I handwashed a DVF wrap dress and hung it up to dry and the colours bled into the cream background, so I wouldn't. Before that I used to wash them myself quite often and most were fine, never shrunk or anything.

Well, first off, I know you don't even know me, but I read this thread everyday, though I rarely post. This made me post! So for what it's worth, I wanted to chime in. This dress made me gasp a little! I love it!! It is such a retro chic look, and a shift dress is not meant to be belted or nipped. It is clear that the figure that lies beneath is spectacular, and not all dresses need to hug the body to be sexy or flattering. Your collar bones and legs are your secret weapons here!
I think the vibe you are giving off is elegant and understated - the dress isn't screaming, but there is no doubt people will look!
