Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Dorothy Perkins dress remains in top condition, always follow the specific care label located inside the garment. Generally, delicate fabrics with detailed patterns and shirring benefit from being washed inside-out in a laundry bag using a cold, gentle cycle. Avoid high-heat drying, which can damage the elastic in the cuffs and fade the floral print. When storing, hanging the dress on a padded hanger helps maintain the structure of the shoulders and bodice.
