Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Valentino dress lasts for years, proper care is essential. Always store the garment on a high-quality, padded hanger to maintain the structural integrity of the shoulders and square neckline. Given the blend of virgin wool and silk, this item should be kept in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight, which can fade the black fabric over time. If the garment becomes wrinkled from storage, use a garment steamer on a low, silk-appropriate setting, keeping the nozzle at a distance to avoid damaging the satin trim. Always have the dress professionally dry-cleaned rather than attempting to hand or machine wash.
