Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress maintains its structure and vibrant print, follow these guidelines:
- Care: Because the dress is made of cotton, machine wash on a gentle cycle with like colors to prevent snagging the contrast binding. Avoid high-heat drying, which can shrink cotton fibers.
- Ironing: Use a low-to-medium heat setting. If the dress feels wrinkled from storage, a quick steam pass will restore the crispness of the poplin.
- Fit: The shirred bodice is designed to be form-fitting. If you prefer a looser fit, ensure the tie-side is adjusted before securing the straps to your desired length.
- Storage: Hang the dress in a cool, dry place to prevent the binding from becoming creased.
