Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after storage.

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period or use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Avoid direct heat.

Broderie anglaise detailing looks delicate.

Handle the dress with care, especially around the neckline and sleeves. Avoid snagging on rough surfaces. Follow recommended cleaning procedures.
