Troubleshooting
Dress feels too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Bandage knit is designed to be form-fitting; consider the recommended styling with minimal accessories to avoid adding bulk.
Fabric appears stretched or lost its shape after cleaning.
This may indicate improper cleaning. Always adhere to dry cleaning recommendations. If stretching has occurred, consult a professional tailor for potential reshaping.
Asymmetric neckline is not sitting as intended.
Ensure the dress is pulled up evenly. The construction is designed to drape in a specific way; gentle adjustment should align the neckline correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This dress requires no assembly. Its primary compatibility is with the wearer's personal style and occasion. For care, due to the delicate bandage knit construction and wool blend material, dry cleaning is strongly recommended to maintain the integrity and shape of the garment. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can cause shrinkage or stretching. Store the dress folded or on a padded hanger to prevent creases and maintain its form. Ironing should be done on a low heat setting, ideally with a pressing cloth, if necessary.
