Troubleshooting

Minor wrinkling upon arrival

Hemline feels too long

Consider pairing the dress with higher heels or consult a professional tailor to have the hem adjusted to your specific height.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your dress remains in peak condition, store it on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder distortion from the cape sleeves. Because of the delicate nature of the fabric, professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the integrity of the garment's structure. When traveling, use a garment bag to protect the material from snags. If the dress arrives with minor wrinkles from shipping, a light steam from a safe distance is the preferred method for smoothing the fabric.
