“The drawstring back means it actually closes as much or as little as you want, and the rose unpins if you think its too much.”

Before You Order

Questions, answered

Which size should I take?
Our sleepwear is cut to drape, not cling. Between sizes? Take the larger one — the silhouette rewards a little room.
How do I care for it?
Hand wash cool with a gentle detergent — or a lingerie bag on a delicate cycle — then reshape while damp and keep it away from the dryer. Silk rewards the extra minute.
How long does shipping take?
Orders are packed within 1–2 business days and usually reach you within 9–14 days, tracked the whole way. Over $89, shipping is on us; under that it’s $10 (Australia $13).
How is my order packaged?
Plainly, on purpose — a simple unbranded parcel with nothing printed on the outside. What’s inside stays between us.
What if it doesn’t fit?
You have 30 days from delivery. Unworn, unwashed, tags on. There’s no prepaid label — you post it back to our New Zealand address at your own cost (if the mistake was ours, we cover it). Don’t want to post it back? Write to aniya@darette.com and we can usually agree a partial refund instead.
Anything extra with my order?
Orders over $50 include a complimentary gift — upgraded at $100, $150 and $200 — added automatically at checkout. No code needed.

the little rose knot at the back got me. bought as a gift for my best friend who just moved into her first apartment alone, it felt right!

M

doing chores in it because why not. the sleeves balloon exactly like the photos and the hem moves like water. runs roomy, i sized down after reading the note and it was right.

poured light

stood at the window in it and felt like a painting. the volume in the skirt is real, there is a lot of fabric here for the price

that rose

Photos of the details because that is what sold me. The rose is satin and comes off with a pin, and the back drawstring is a real cord not a ribbon that frays. Texture feels dry and cool, not slippery.

the back is the show

Wore it out to water the garden like a victorian ghost and i regret nothing. The drawstring back means it actually closes as much or as little as you want, and the rose unpins if you think its too much. Its never too much.

night on the balcony

Brushed my hair on the balcony in it and felt like the main character of a period drama. Sleeves are dramatic but they stay out of the way more than you would think.

Looks expensive hanging up

i keep it on the wardrobe door instead of in the drawer, it is that pretty. fabric has a fine crinkle texture, not flat shiny

im 5'9 and it still pools a little on the floor, shorter friends it will trail. i like the drama, but watch the stairs.

texture surprised me

The crackle texture feels papery the first night, i almost sent it back. It softened after the first hand wash and now i get why they cut it this way, it holds the sleeve shape.

Georgia, that first-night papery feel is the weave holding its body, and you found the answer yourself, one cool hand wash relaxes it. Glad you gave it the second chance before the returns label.

size note that matters

I read the reviews saying it runs generous and still ordered my usual medium. Should have gone small. It works because of the back drawstring but between sizes definitely take the smaller one.
