Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after storage

Hang the dress to allow creases to fall out naturally. If necessary, use a steamer on a low setting or iron on the reverse side with a pressing cloth at a low temperature.

Embroidery threads snagging

Carefully trim any snagged threads with sharp embroidery scissors. Avoid pulling the threads, as this can damage the embroidery pattern. Ensure proper storage to prevent snagging.

Discoloration of fabric

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. If washing, use cold water and a mild detergent. Consult a professional cleaner for stubborn stains.
