Troubleshooting
Studs becoming loose or falling off
If a stud becomes loose, attempt to re-secure it by taking the garment to a professional tailor or seamstress experienced with embellishments. Avoid attempting to re-glue them yourself, as this may damage the fabric or stud finish.
Fabric appears creased after storage
Gently steam the dress on the reverse side using a garment steamer, keeping the steamer at a safe distance from the fabric and studs. Alternatively, consult a professional dry cleaner for specialized pressing.
