Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a dress, 'setup' primarily refers to ensuring a proper fit and preparing it for wear. Upon receiving your dress, try it on to confirm sizing and note any areas that might require minor alterations, such as hem length. The material, satin back crepe, is compatible with formal accessories like delicate jewelry, silk wraps, and elegant clutches.
Care Instructions
To maintain the beauty and longevity of your Honoured Satin Back Crepe dress, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Due to the delicate nature of satin back crepe, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to preserve the fabric's integrity and finish. If dry cleaning is not immediately possible, spot clean minor marks very carefully with a damp, clean cloth and a mild detergent specifically designed for delicate fabrics. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- De-wrinkling: Hang the dress immediately upon receipt to allow any shipping wrinkles to fall out. For persistent wrinkles, use a garment steamer on a low setting or hang the dress in a steamy bathroom. If ironing is necessary, use the lowest heat setting with a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric to protect the satin finish, ironing on the reverse side of the fabric.
- Storage: Store the dress on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a garment bag can protect it from dust and snags. Avoid folding for extended periods to prevent creasing.
