Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep this garment in top condition, follow these care steps:
- Storage: Hang the dress using padded hangers to prevent shoulder distortion caused by the weight of the sequins.
- Cleaning: Due to the delicate nature of the sequins, avoid standard machine washing. Professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to prevent snagging or bead loss.
- Ironing: Use a steamer on a low setting from the inside of the garment if necessary to remove wrinkles, ensuring you avoid direct contact between the iron and the sequins.
- Handling: When dressing, be mindful of jewelry that may snag the sequins during application.
