Troubleshooting

Dress does not hang correctly

Ensure the dress is being worn with the correct undergarments that do not interfere with the drape. Check the care label for specific steaming or ironing instructions to help relax the fabric.

Fabric appears creased after storage

Gently steam the dress on a low setting, ensuring the steamer is not too close to the fabric. Alternatively, consult the care label for ironing instructions.

Color appears uneven

Verify that the garment is dry. If the issue persists and is due to the two-tone design, this is an intentional stylistic element. If it appears to be a manufacturing defect, contact customer service.
