Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after storage.
Gently steam the dress on a cool setting or have it professionally dry cleaned and pressed. Avoid direct high heat when ironing.
Crochet detailing snagged or pulled.
If a small snag occurs, try to gently pull the loose thread back through to the reverse side using a fine needle. For larger damage, professional repair by a seamstress experienced with delicate fabrics is recommended.
