Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your dress retains its texture and structure, adhere to the following care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Hand wash or use a gentle cycle with a mesh laundry bag to prevent the pleats from becoming distorted.
  2. Drying: Avoid tumble drying at high temperatures. Lay the garment flat or hang it to dry in a shaded area to protect the fabric integrity.
  3. Ironing: Avoid direct ironing on the pleats. If steaming is necessary, use a low-heat steamer from a distance to gently release any wrinkles.
  4. Storage: Store the dress on a padded hanger to maintain its drape, rather than folding it tightly in a drawer.
