Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress remains in optimal condition, adhere to the following guidelines:
- Storage: Hang the dress on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry place to prevent the weight of the fabric from distorting the shoulders.
- Maintenance: Do not attempt to wash this garment at home. The delicate nature of the broderie anglaise requires professional dry cleaning to avoid shrinking or damaging the intricate detailing.
- Steaming: If the dress arrives with light wrinkles from storage, use a handheld garment steamer on a low heat setting, keeping the nozzle a few inches away from the cotton fabric.
- Sizing: The dress is currently available in various UK sizes ranging from 4 to 16. Ensure you consult a sizing chart to verify your specific fit, as cotton does not offer significant stretch.
