Troubleshooting

Visible wrinkles upon unpacking

Use a garment steamer on a low heat setting, keeping the nozzle a few inches away from the cutwork to avoid damage.

Loose threads near cutwork

Do not pull threads; carefully trim them with sharp embroidery scissors to prevent further unraveling.

Staining on light fabric

Spot treat immediately with a gentle, bleach-free fabric cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this garment features delicate cutwork and a structured bodice, it is recommended to store it on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the collar and shoulders. Due to the artisanal broderie work, professional dry cleaning or hand-washing in cool water is advised to prevent snagging. Always check the interior garment label for specific care instructions. When styling, opt for strapless or adhesive undergarments to maintain the clean lines of the open-back halter design.
