Troubleshooting

Dress wrinkles easily

Linen blends are prone to wrinkling. Hang the dress immediately after wear. Use a steamer or iron on a low heat setting with care. Consider professional dry cleaning for best results.

Belt feels too tight or loose

Adjust the belt to the desired notch. If the belt is consistently uncomfortable, consider if the sizing is correct for your waist. Ensure the square buckle is securely fastened.

Bodice boning feels uncomfortable

The boning is designed for structure. Ensure the dress is the correct size. Wear for short periods initially to adapt. If discomfort persists, the structured nature might not suit your preference.

Fabric feels stiff

The linen blend may feel slightly crisp initially. It will soften with wear and proper care. Ensure dry cleaning is performed as recommended.
