FAQs
Is the fabric see-through?
The white jersey fabric is relatively lightweight, so it is recommended to wear light-colored or nude-tone undergarments.
Can I machine wash this costume?
No, machine washing is not recommended. The delicate brocade trim and buckle details should be hand-washed to prevent damage.
Does the costume come with accessories like sandals or a wig?
No, the set includes only the dress and the matching waist belt; other accessories are sold separately.
Is the waist belt adjustable?
Yes, the belt uses hook and loop fasteners, allowing for some flexibility in fit around the waist.
What material is used for the dress?
The dress is made from high-quality polyester designed to have an elastic, jersey-like feel.
Troubleshooting
Hook and loop fastener losing grip
Remove lint or fabric fibers caught in the hooks using a small pair of tweezers or a fine-toothed comb.
Wrinkles in the jersey fabric
Use a handheld steamer on the lowest setting, keeping the nozzle at least six inches away from the material.
Fabric snagged on the belt trim
Gently pull the fabric away from the fastener; avoid yanking, as this can cause permanent runs in the polyester.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your costume, align the waist belt to your preferred fit and secure it using the hook and loop fasteners. The belt adds shape to the dress, creating an authentic silhouette.
Care Instructions:
- Hand wash only in cool water to preserve the integrity of the brocade border.
- Do not tumble dry; hang the garment to air dry in a shaded area.
- Avoid using high-heat irons; if wrinkling occurs, use a garment steamer on a low setting from a distance.
- Store the costume on a padded hanger to prevent stress marks on the shoulder straps.
