Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this dress is crafted from high-quality cotton with contrast piping, proper maintenance is essential to ensure long-term wearability:
- Washing: Follow the care label instructions strictly. Generally, hand washing or a gentle cycle in cold water is recommended to preserve the integrity of the contrast piping.
- Drying: Avoid high-heat tumble drying, which may cause shrinkage or damage the elastic in the waistband. Air dry flat or hang carefully to maintain the shape of the puff sleeves.
- Ironing: Use a low-temperature setting. If the dress has become wrinkled, steam the tiered sections gently rather than pressing down hard with a dry iron to protect the piping.
- Storage: Store on a padded hanger to maintain the volume of the puff sleeves and prevent the fabric from creasing in the shoulders.
