Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your velvet garment, observe the following care guidelines:
- Storage: Always hang the dress in a garment bag to prevent the velvet pile from crushing or accumulating dust. Avoid folding, which can cause permanent creases in the fabric.
- Cleaning: Given the dense pile of the velvet, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to maintain the integrity of the fabric and the precision of the neckline.
- Styling: This piece pairs exceptionally well with strappy, open-toed heels to maintain an unbroken vertical line. Given the asymmetric neckline, ensure your undergarments are specifically chosen for off-the-shoulder styles.
- Steaming: If the fabric develops minor wrinkles, use a garment steamer on the reverse side only. Never press directly onto the velvet pile with a flat iron.
