Troubleshooting

Dress appears to have lost its shape

Gently reshape the garment while damp and lay flat to dry. Ensure it was not machine washed or tumbled dry.

Fringe is tangled

Carefully try to detangle the fringe strands with your fingers or a fine-toothed comb. Avoid pulling forcefully.

Color fading or dullness

Ensure the dress is being washed in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during drying.
