Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after storage.
Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period or use a cool iron on the reverse side. Professional dry cleaning can also help restore the fabric's smoothness.
The fabric feels stiff.
Ensure the dress has been stored correctly and has not been exposed to harsh chemicals or excessive heat. Gentle steaming may help to relax the fabric.
