Troubleshooting

Dress feels tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Ponte jersey offers stretch, but the form-defining cut means precise sizing is important. Check the garment's care label for any specific fit recommendations.

Stud embellishments appear loose or damaged.

Carefully check the embellishments. If loose, they may require professional re-attachment. Avoid excessive pulling or snagging the fabric around the studs.

Fabric shows wrinkles after storage.

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or use a fabric steamer on a low setting. If necessary, iron on the reverse side on a cool setting, avoiding direct contact with embellishments.
