Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your & Other Stories dress in top condition, adhere to the following guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cold cycle to protect the integrity of the pleats and fabric pattern.
- Drying: Avoid tumble drying. Hang the dress to air dry naturally, which also helps the pleats settle back into their original shape.
- Ironing: Steam is preferred over direct contact ironing. If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and ensure a protective cloth is placed between the iron and the fabric.
- Storage: Store by hanging on a high-quality hanger to prevent creasing, rather than folding the dress.
