Troubleshooting

Dress wrinkles easily

Hang the dress on a padded hanger and use a steamer on a low setting. If ironing is necessary, use a pressing cloth and the lowest heat setting appropriate for the fabric.

Buttons feel loose

Carefully reinforce the buttons by hand-sewing them with a strong thread. Consult a tailor for more complex repairs.

Fit feels slightly off after wear

Allow the garment to rest after wearing. If persistent issues arise, consider professional tailoring for minor adjustments to ensure a perfect fit.
