Troubleshooting

Loose or missing sequins

Carefully inspect the garment. If a few sequins are loose, they may be gently re-secured with a few stitches using a fine needle and matching thread. For significant loss, professional repair might be needed.

Dress appears creased

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period. If creases persist, consult a professional dry cleaner for appropriate steaming or pressing techniques, ensuring they are aware of the sequin detailing.

Fabric feels stiff

This is often due to the nature of sequin application. Ensure the dress is stored properly and avoid over-handling. The feel may also improve slightly after professional cleaning.
