Frequently Asked Questions
Do your dresses have lining and pockets?
Most of our styles come with both lining and pockets. For exact details, check the Features & Fit section on each product page.
For styles without lining, it's simply because they don't need it. We use high-quality, tightly woven cotton that isn't see through - so you get comfort and coverage without the extra layer.
What makes Hi Handmade cotton better?
Hi Handmade cotton is 200 Thread Count cotton uses a luxurious 92x104 weave, making it softer, smoother, and longer-lasting than fast fashion cotton, which is usually just 60x60. The higher thread count means more yarns per inch - giving your better comfort, breathability, softness, and overall quality you can feel.
