Troubleshooting

Dress feels too long

Consider professional tailoring for a customized hem length. Alternatively, wear with heels to adjust the perceived length.

Silk fabric appears creased

Gently steam the dress or iron on a cool setting on the reverse side. Ensure the iron is not too hot.

Strap adjustment needed

As the straps are thin and asymmetric, they are not adjustable. Ensure the fit is comfortable before purchase or consider minor alterations if needed.

Color fades after washing

Ensure you are using cold water and a detergent specifically for delicates or silk. Avoid prolonged soaking and direct sunlight during drying.
