Can the gold-tone buckle trim be removed?

What is the fabric made of?

The primary material for this dress is Polyester, designed for its sculpting and durable qualities.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Refer to the specific size chart provided by the brand for accurate measurements. Bandage dresses are meant to fit snugly.

Troubleshooting

Dress does not fit as expected.

Refer to the size guide for accurate measurements. Bandage dresses are designed for a close fit; consider if a different size might be more suitable.

Fabric appears creased or wrinkled.

Gently steam the dress on a low setting or hang it in a steamy bathroom. Avoid direct high heat ironing.

Gold-tone buckle trim loses shine.

Gently wipe the buckle with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.

Bandage construction feels tight.

Bandage dresses are intended to be form-fitting. Ensure you are wearing appropriate undergarments. If it's uncomfortably tight, it may indicate an incorrect size.
