Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after storage or travel
Gently steam the dress using a garment steamer or hang it in a steamy bathroom. If ironing, use a very low heat setting with a pressing cloth to protect the chiffon.
Fabric appears to snag easily
Chiffon is a delicate fabric. Handle with care, avoid contact with rough surfaces or sharp objects, and be mindful of jewellery that might catch on the material. Minor snags can sometimes be carefully worked back into place with a fine needle.
The fitted waist feels too tight or loose
Ensure you have selected the correct size according to the brand's sizing chart. If the fit is slightly off, a professional tailor may be able to make minor adjustments to achieve a perfect fit.
The dress doesn't drape as expected
Ensure the dress is properly hung and allowed to settle. The drape of chiffon can be influenced by undergarments; consider wearing seamless or shapewear for a smoother silhouette. If freshly laundered, ensure it's completely dry and properly stored.

Avoid direct, high heat.- Storage: Store on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place to prevent creasing and maintain its shape.
