Troubleshooting

Fabric appears creased

Follow the recommended care instructions for ironing on a low heat setting, preferably on the reverse side. Professional dry cleaning can also help remove stubborn creases.

Dress does not drape as expected

Ensure the dress has been stored properly, hung on a padded hanger to maintain its shape. If the fabric feels stiff, a professional dry clean may help restore its natural softness and drape.

Accessories clash with the dress design

Opt for minimalist and refined accessories. Delicate necklaces, subtle earrings, and a sleek clutch bag will complement the dress's intricate design without overwhelming it.
