Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Dorothy Perkins dress looking its best, always consult the internal care label. Given the cotton composition, it is recommended to wash the garment in cool water on a gentle cycle to prevent shrinkage. Avoid high-heat tumble drying; instead, hang the dress to air dry to maintain the integrity of the collar structure. If ironing is necessary, use a medium heat setting while the fabric is slightly damp to smooth out any creases effectively.
