Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after washing.

Iron the dress on a medium setting while slightly damp, or use a steamer. Ensure proper drying methods are followed as per care instructions.

Wrap tie is difficult to secure.

Ensure the tie is threaded through the designated opening correctly. Adjust the waist fit before fully tying the bow for a secure hold.

Sleeves feel too voluminous.

The voluminous sleeves are a design feature. For a slightly less pronounced look, ensure the dress is properly fitted at the waist, which can help balance the sleeve volume.
