Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after wearing.

Gently steam the garment or iron on a medium heat setting with a pressing cloth. For more stubborn wrinkles, consider professional dry cleaning. Store on a hanger to prevent future creasing.

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and cool water. If hand-washing, do not wring the fabric excessively. Professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain fabric softness and structure.

Buckle detail is difficult to clean.

Wipe the buckle carefully with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid immersing the buckle in water or using abrasive cleaners. Ensure it is completely dry after cleaning.

Midi length feels too long or short.

Consider tailoring services for professional alterations to achieve the perfect hemline for your height and preference.
