Troubleshooting
Dress does not hang as expected
Ensure the dress is properly steamed or professionally pressed to allow the fabric and pleats to fall correctly. Check that it is the correct size; a size too small or too large can affect the drape.
Colour bleeding or fading
This is unlikely with proper care. Adhere strictly to 'dry clean only' instructions. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight for prolonged periods when storing.
Pleats losing their sharpness
Re-pleating may be necessary. Professional dry cleaning is recommended to restore pleat definition. Avoid ironing directly on the pleats without a protective cloth.
