Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because of the delicate nature of the satin finish and the complex construction of the layered ruffles, proper care is essential to keep the garment in pristine condition. Always hang the dress on a wide, padded hanger to prevent shoulder indentation and to ensure the ruffle tiers remain smooth and uncreased. Avoid contact with rough jewelry or sharp objects that could snag the satin fibers. For cleaning, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to preserve the texture and structure of the bodice. Always store in a breathable garment bag when not in use to protect the delicate fabric from dust and environmental wear.
