Fabric feels stiff or less lustrous

This can sometimes happen after dry cleaning. Ensure the dry cleaner is experienced with delicate fabrics and metallic threads. Proper storage away from humidity can help maintain luster.

Minor snag or pull in the fabric

For small snags, attempt to gently push the snagged thread back through to the inside of the garment using a fine needle. If the snag is significant, professional repair by a tailor experienced with knitwear is recommended.
