Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress maintains its structure and color, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Due to the velvet composition, professional dry cleaning is recommended to prevent crushing the pile. If spot cleaning is necessary, use a soft cloth and avoid vigorous rubbing.
- Storage: Always hang the dress using wide-shouldered hangers to prevent indentations in the fabric. Avoid crowding the dress in your closet.
- Wrinkle Removal: Use a garment steamer at a distance, hovering over the fabric, rather than a direct iron which can flatten the velvet pile.
- Compatibility: This item comes in various UK sizes (8 through 18) to ensure a comfortable fit. Check the size chart carefully before selecting your preferred fit, as velvet has less 'give' than synthetic stretch fabrics.
