What does 'Ristretto' mean as a color name?

Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after washing
Linen blends can naturally wrinkle. Try ironing the dress on a low heat setting while it is still slightly damp. Alternatively, a steam iron or a garment steamer can effectively remove wrinkles.
Color seems different than expected
The designer color name 'Ristretto' is subjective. Colors can appear differently on various screens. Consult product images carefully or view in person if possible for accurate color representation. Ensure washing is done at 30 degrees to prevent color fading.
Belt does not stay fastened
Ensure the belt is tied securely. If the material is slippery, consider a double knot. If the belt is excessively long, it might be a sign of a size mismatch, although this is unlikely with a correctly sized dress.
