Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress remains in top condition, follow these care guidelines. As this garment is crafted from premium cotton, it is recommended to dry clean or follow specific garment-care instructions to preserve the cutwork embroidery. Avoid excessive heat when ironing, as this can damage the detailing; a low-heat setting or a garment steamer is preferred. When styling, the cream color serves as a neutral base, making it highly compatible with metallic tones, soft pastels, or bold colorful accessories depending on the event theme.
