FAQs

What occasions is this dress suitable for?

What are the washing instructions for the velvet dress?

It is recommended to dry clean only to preserve the quality and texture of the velvet fabric.

How should I store this velvet dress?

Store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain its shape and prevent creasing. Keep it out of direct sunlight.

What other sizes are available?

How should I handle minor wrinkles on the velvet?

A garment steamer on a low heat setting or professional dry cleaning is the safest way to remove wrinkles from velvet without damaging the fabric.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after storage.

Gently steam the dress on a low setting, or have it professionally dry-cleaned and pressed. Avoid direct ironing on the velvet pile.

Velvet pile looks crushed.

Use a garment steamer on a low heat setting, holding it at a distance, to lift the pile. Alternatively, consult a professional dry cleaner.

Color seems faded.

Ensure the dress is stored away from direct sunlight. If fading is significant, consult a professional cleaner for potential color restoration options.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Due to the velvet material, it is recommended to dry clean only to maintain the fabric's texture and color.
  • Storage: Store the dress on a padded hanger to prevent creasing and to maintain its shape. Avoid folding for long periods. Keep away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
