FAQs
What is the best way to store this dress?
Store it in a breathable garment bag, hanging upright to prevent the tulle layers from losing their shape.
Can this dress be machine washed?
No, due to the delicate nature of the tulle and frill detailing, professional dry cleaning is the only recommended cleaning method.
What type of footwear works best?
Minimalist, block-heeled sandals or classic stilettos in neutral shades are recommended to complement the dress without competing with the design.
Is the waist adjustable?
The waist features a ruched design for a defined fit, but it is not adjustable like a corset or belt.
Will the tulle lose its volume over time?
If stored correctly on a hanger rather than folded, the tulle will maintain its tiered structure and volume.
Is the fabric see-through?
The dress is designed with layered tulle, which provides opacity, though it is recommended to wear skin-toned seamless undergarments.
Troubleshooting
Static cling in tulle layers
Lightly mist the garment with a specialized anti-static fabric spray from a distance to allow layers to hang freely.
Wrinkles in the fabric
Use a professional steamer on a low setting, keeping the nozzle a safe distance from the tulle, or let it hang in a steamy bathroom to allow creases to drop out.
Snagged tulle
Avoid pulling on loose threads; carefully tuck them back into the layers or consult a professional tailor for delicate repairs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this garment is crafted from delicate tulle with extensive frill detailing, it should be hung on a sturdy, velvet-covered hanger to prevent the material from slipping or snagging. Avoid hanging it in crowded closets where the frills could become crushed or caught on other items. If the dress requires cleaning, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to preserve the integrity of the tulle and the specific floral print. For transport, use a long, breathable garment bag to ensure the cascading hem and layered bodice arrive in pristine condition.
