FAQs
Can I wash this dress in a washing machine?
No, this garment is strictly dry clean only to preserve the structural integrity of the boucle and the delicacy of the chiffon.
Does the dress provide full coverage?
Yes, the dress is fully lined to ensure opacity and comfort.
What is the primary material used?
The dress is crafted from high-quality polyester, chosen for its durability and ability to hold its structured shape.
Are the pockets functional?
No, the pockets featured on the dress are decorative faux pockets designed to add visual texture to the bodice.
Is the fit true to size?

Troubleshooting
Wrinkles in the chiffon panel
Use a handheld steamer on a low heat setting, keeping the nozzle several inches away from the fabric to avoid direct contact.
Loose buttons
Secure the button thread carefully or take the garment to a professional tailor to ensure the stitch remains consistent with the original manufacturing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this garment uses a blend of boucle and chiffon, it is sensitive to heat and moisture.
- Storage: Hang the dress on a sturdy, padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and avoid stretching the chiffon.
- Cleaning: This item is dry clean only. Do not attempt to machine wash or tumble dry, as the heat and agitation will damage the boucle texture and potentially cause the chiffon to fray or pull.
- Ironing: Use a garment steamer at a low setting only if necessary, keeping a safe distance from the fabric to prevent synthetic heat damage.
