Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased upon arrival or after storage.

As the dress is made of taffeta, creases can form. We recommend professional steaming or pressing by a dry cleaner. Avoid ironing directly on the fabric; use a pressing cloth if necessary and only with low heat, or consult a professional.

Belt buckle or leather insert needs cleaning.

For the leather insert, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner sparingly. Ensure the product is tested on an inconspicuous area first. For the buckle, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it snags, check for any fabric caught in the teeth. A small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant can sometimes help ease friction on metal zippers. Do not force the zipper.
