  • Elegant midi length suitable for diverse event types

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your garment, always store it hanging in a cool, dry place to prevent the ruffles from losing their sculptural form. Use a padded hanger to maintain the shoulder shape. Because of the delicate satin construction, this garment is strictly for professional cleaning to protect the texture and the integrity of the seams. Before wear, ensure the dress is steamed lightly from a distance to remove any packaging creases, being careful not to apply direct heat to the textured satin surface. Avoid contact with abrasive jewelry or rough surfaces that could pull the delicate fabric threads.
