Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because of the delicate openwork patterns, proper care is essential to maintain the structural integrity of the fabric.
- Washing: It is recommended to hand wash or use a gentle cycle in a mesh garment bag to prevent the laser-cut areas from snagging on other items.
- Drying: Air dry the garment flat or on a hanger to prevent distortion of the embroidery and cutwork.
- Ironing: Use a low-to-medium heat setting. It is best to iron the garment while slightly damp, or use a steamer to avoid crushing the intricate patterns on the chest and shoulders.
- Storage: Store on a quality hanger to ensure the shoulder structure remains intact.
