Is the floral pattern embroidered or woven?

Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after washing.

Gently reshape the dress while damp and allow it to air dry flat or on a padded hanger. If creases persist, iron on the reverse side at a low temperature with a pressing cloth.

Fabric feels stiff or loses texture.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and cold water for washing. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive heat during drying and ironing.

Colour seems faded after a few washes.

Wash the dress inside out in cold water. Use a detergent designed for coloured fabrics and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.

Buttons feel loose or damaged.

If buttons are loose, carefully re-sew them using a strong thread. For damaged buttons, contact customer service for potential replacement options.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Due to the delicate nature of the jacquard weave and denim material, hand washing in cold water is recommended. Alternatively, a gentle machine wash cycle on a low temperature (30°C or 86°F) is suitable.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent specifically designed for colours or delicates.
  • Bleaching: Do not use bleach or harsh chemical cleaners, as they can damage the fabric and colour.
  • Drying: Avoid tumble drying. Instead, lay the dress flat on a clean towel or hang it on a padded hanger away from direct sunlight to air dry. Reshape the garment while damp.
  • Ironing: Iron on the reverse side at a low temperature. A pressing cloth can be used to protect the jacquard pattern. Ensure the iron is not too hot to avoid scorching or melting the fibres.
  • Dry Cleaning: Professional dry cleaning is a suitable option for maintaining the fabric's integrity and the garment's shape, especially for preserving the jacquard texture.
