Troubleshooting

Zipper is difficult to move

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. If stiffness persists, a small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed on the zipper teeth can help lubricate it. Avoid force, which can damage the zipper.

Boning feels uncomfortable or restrictive

Ensure the gown is the correct size. Minor adjustments to the internal structure are not recommended for users; consult a professional tailor if significant discomfort persists, though this may affect the garment's integrity.

Fabric appears wrinkled after storage

Hang the gown in a steamy bathroom for 15-20 minutes to allow steam to relax the fibers. Alternatively, use a professional garment steamer on a low setting, keeping the steamer at a safe distance from the fabric.
