Troubleshooting

Dress arrived creased

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or use a cool iron on the reverse side. Professional dry cleaning may also help remove stubborn creases.

Print seems faded after cleaning

Ensure you followed the recommended care instructions precisely. For future cleaning, opt for professional dry cleaning and avoid harsh detergents or excessive heat.

Fabric feels stiff
