Troubleshooting
Embroidery threads snagging
If a thread snags, do not pull it. Carefully trim the snagged thread with sharp embroidery scissors as close to the fabric as possible.
Dress appears creased after storage
Follow the low-heat ironing instructions with a pressing cloth. Hanging the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period may also help release minor creases.
Belt doesn't stay tied securely
Ensure the fabric is completely dry. You may need to tie a double knot or adjust the tightness of the tie for a more secure fit. Consider professional tailoring if this is a persistent issue.
