Troubleshooting
Dress appears creased after washing
Ensure you are following the recommended care instructions. If hand washing, dry flat or on a padded hanger. If dry cleaning, inform the cleaner about the fabric type. Iron on a low heat setting with a pressing cloth, focusing on the pleats and collar.
Belt buckle feels loose or difficult to fasten
Check the buckle mechanism for any obstruction. Ensure the belt is threaded correctly through the buckle loops. If the issue persists, it may be a manufacturing defect, and you should contact customer support.
Fabric feels stiff or loses shape
This is characteristic of structured twill fabric. Ensure proper washing and ironing techniques are used. Avoid over-drying if machine drying is recommended (though hand washing or dry cleaning is often preferred).

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Due to the structured twill fabric, it is recommended to check the care label for specific washing instructions. Typically, this type of fabric may require dry cleaning or a gentle hand wash to maintain its shape and prevent damage. Avoid machine washing on a high setting or using harsh detergents.
- Ironing: Iron on a low setting, preferably on the reverse side of the fabric. Use a pressing cloth to protect the material and avoid direct heat on the contrast collar or belt buckle. Pay close attention to the pleated front detail to ensure it remains crisp.
- Storage: Store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain its structure and prevent creasing, especially around the shoulders and neckline.
Compatibility:
This dress is designed as a standalone piece but pairs well with a variety of footwear and outerwear, including strappy sandals, heels, ballet flats, cropped jackets, and lightweight cardigans.
