Troubleshooting

Dress feels too long despite being petite size

Ensure you have selected the correct petite size. The midi length is intended for heights 5'3" and under. You may need to consider professional tailoring if the length is still not ideal for your specific height within the petite range.

Fabric feels rough after washing

This can sometimes happen with cheesecloth. Try a fabric softener on a gentle cycle or air dry instead of machine drying. Ensure you are following the cold wash and gentle cycle recommendations.

Straps are difficult to adjust

Gently pull the strap ends through the sliders. If they feel stiff, ensure the fabric is not bunched. Refer to online tutorials for adjusting bra-style straps if needed.
