The dress is made from a woven crepe fabric, which is primarily 100% polyester, known for its smooth finish and elegant drape.

How should I care for this dress?

Professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the quality and structure of the fabric and pleats. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.

What occasions is this dress appropriate for?

Troubleshooting

Dress loses shape after washing.

Ensure the dress is dry cleaned as recommended. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, which can damage the fabric structure and pleats.

Creases are difficult to remove.

Use a low heat setting on your iron with a pressing cloth. For stubborn pleats, professional steaming may be more effective.

Belt not staying securely fastened.

Ensure the buckle is threaded correctly through the fabric loop. If the fabric is worn, consider a replacement belt or a discreet stitch to secure the buckle.
