How should I clean the dress?
It is recommended to hand wash the dress in cold water with a mild detergent and lay it flat to air dry. Avoid tumble drying.
Does the dress run true to size for a petite fit?
The dress is designed with a petite fit in mind. However, individual fit can vary based on body proportions. Refer to the size chart for specific measurements.
Can I machine wash this dress?

Troubleshooting
Embroidery appears loose or snagged.
Gently try to tuck any loose threads back in with a needle. For significant damage, consult a professional tailor or seamstress specializing in delicate fabrics.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
Ensure you have rinsed thoroughly to remove all detergent. Air dry completely. Sometimes a very low heat iron can help soften the fabric, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
Gold accents lose their shine.
Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive rubbing. Clean with a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. For significant fading, professional restoration may be required.
Dress appears too long despite being petite.
As it is a petite fit, minor length adjustments might still be necessary depending on individual proportions. Consult a tailor for professional hemming.
