Troubleshooting

Fabric snagging

Be cautious when wearing jewellery or near rough surfaces. If a minor snag occurs, do not pull, as this can worsen the damage. Professional dry cleaning may be able to assist with minor repairs.

Dress does not hang correctly

Ensure the self-tie is adjusted properly to define the waist. Check that the dress is not creased from improper storage. Steaming on a low setting (away from direct heat) may help smooth the fabric.
