Troubleshooting

Fabric snagging or pulling

The woven texture can be susceptible to snags. Handle with care, especially around jewelry or rough surfaces. If a minor snag occurs, do not pull; consider professional tailoring for repair.

Bow detail losing its structure

Ensure the dress is dry cleaned and stored properly on a padded hanger. Avoid crushing the bow during storage or transport.

Dress does not hang as expected

Verify the correct size has been purchased. Ensure the garment is hung correctly and allow it to 'rest' to naturally fall into its intended silhouette.
