Troubleshooting
Dress feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Bandage knit is designed to be form-fitting; if it feels restrictive, consider if a larger size is needed or if it's the intended fit.
Ruffle hem losing shape
Ensure the dress is laid flat to dry. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric. If needed, carefully press the ruffles following care instructions.
Fabric snagging
Be cautious of sharp jewelry or accessories that could snag the knit. Handle with care during wear and washing.
Color fading
Wash with similar colors and use a mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying.
