Troubleshooting

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or have it professionally steamed. Avoid direct ironing, especially on high heat, as it can damage the viscose fabric.

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. A small amount of dry lubricant like graphite (from a pencil tip) applied to the zipper teeth can help. If the issue persists, consult a tailor.

Fabric has lost its sheen or feels stiff after cleaning.

This may indicate improper dry cleaning. Ensure you use a reputable dry cleaner experienced with delicate fabrics like viscose. If the problem is significant, professional assessment may be needed.
