Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after washing.

Ensure the dress is ironed on a low heat setting while slightly damp or use a pressing cloth. Avoid over-drying before ironing.

Pleats are losing their sharpness.

Hand wash gently and allow to air dry flat. Press the pleats carefully with a low-heat iron, potentially using a pleating guide or starch if needed, following fabric care guidelines.

Tie belt doesn't stay fastened.

Ensure the belt is tied securely using a double knot or a preferred method. If the material is very smooth, a small fabric-friendly tack could be considered, but ensure it does not damage the fabric.
