Care Instructions
The dress is made from Polyester, a durable fabric known for shape retention. To maintain its pristine condition and structured shape:
- Professional Dry Cleaning Recommended: Due to its structured design and delicate nature for a special occasion garment, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor spills, gently dab with a clean, damp cloth and a very mild detergent. Avoid rubbing, which can spread the stain or damage the fabric.
- Storage: Store on a padded hanger in a breathable garment bag to protect it from dust and environmental factors. Avoid crushing the structured elements of the Bardot neckline and skirt.
- Ironing/Steaming: Use a cool iron on the reverse side or a garment steamer on a low setting. Always test on an inconspicuous area first to prevent damage to the fabric or finish.
