How do I choose the right size?

Troubleshooting
Straps slipping during wear
Adjust the buckles to a tighter setting, or use a small fashion pin to secure the straps to your undergarment.
Pleats losing their definition
Do not iron the pleats directly. Instead, hang the dress in the bathroom while taking a hot shower to allow the steam to relax wrinkles while maintaining the original pleat shape.
Back bow keeps coming undone
Apply a tiny amount of clear fabric glue or an invisible stitch at the knot once you have achieved the perfect tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your & Other Stories dress lasts, follow these guidelines. Before wearing, steam the dress to release any wrinkles acquired during transit, being careful to avoid flattening the pleats with an iron.
Care Instructions:
- Always check the internal garment tag for specific temperature settings.
- We recommend cold hand-washing or using a 'delicate' machine cycle inside a mesh laundry bag to protect the pleats.
- Hang to dry naturally away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Avoid tumble drying, as the heat can permanently damage the pleated structure and fabric integrity.
