Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your & Other Stories dress in top condition, always refer to the internal care label. Due to the polyester construction, it is recommended to wash the garment on a gentle cycle or hand wash to preserve the integrity of the delicate hip ruffles. When drying, avoid high-heat tumble drying to prevent static or fabric distortion; air drying on a hanger is the best method to maintain the dress's natural drape. Store the dress hanging up to avoid deep creases in the ruffled sections.
