Troubleshooting
Zipper is stuck
Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a tiny bit of lip balm to the zipper teeth and try to move it slowly.
Dress appears wrinkled after storage
Hang the dress on a padded hanger. Use a steamer on a low setting to remove wrinkles, or iron on the reverse side with a cool iron. Ensure the dress is completely dry before storing.
Belt is difficult to secure
Ensure the buckle is correctly aligned. If the material is stiff, gently flex it. If the belt has a buckle, check that the prongs are properly inserted into the holes.
