FAQs
What is the best way to clean this dress?
Professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the integrity of the satin finish and structure.
Does the dress have any stretch?
The garment is crafted from satin, which typically offers limited natural stretch, so it is best to consult the size guide to ensure a comfortable fit.
Can I iron this dress?
It is not recommended to use a traditional iron as it can damage the satin surface. A steamer is the safest option.
Is the dress suitable for outdoor events?
Yes, the breathable nature of the satin makes it suitable for summer garden parties, provided it is kept away from rough surfaces.
What undergarments should I wear?
Due to the bias-cut design, seamless, nude-toned undergarments are recommended for the most flattering, smooth appearance.
Troubleshooting
Visible wrinkles in the fabric
Use a handheld steamer on a low, gentle setting from a distance of at least six inches to avoid heat damage.
Fabric snagging
Ensure all jewelry and accessories are smooth; if a snag occurs, do not pull it, as this may run the fabric.
Difficulty with the zipper
Ensure the dress is fully cooled if it has been stored in a warm area, and check for stray fabric threads caught in the teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this garment is made of premium satin, it is recommended that you store it on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and sleeves. Avoid hanging it in direct sunlight to prevent colour fading. For maintenance, check the inner garment label specifically for dry cleaning instructions, as satin can be prone to water spots or damage in standard washing machines. Ensure that any jewelry worn with the dress is smooth and free of sharp edges to avoid snagging the satin weave.
