Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your garment, always prioritize professional dry cleaning due to the wool material. Avoid machine washing or harsh tumble drying, as these can distort the tailored shape and damage the fabric fibers. Store the dress on a high-quality, contoured hanger to maintain the structure of the shoulder seams and collar. If the dress becomes wrinkled during transit, use a steamer on a low setting, keeping distance between the nozzle and the fabric to prevent singeing or water spots. Always check the internal garment tag for specific care instructions provided by the manufacturer.
