Troubleshooting

Dress arrived wrinkled

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or use a garment steamer on a low setting. If significant wrinkles persist, consult a professional cleaner for specialized pressing.

Zipper is stiff or stuck

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stuck, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.

Fabric feels rough or loses its sheen

This may indicate improper cleaning or storage. Ensure only specialist cleaning is performed. Store the garment flat or on a padded hanger in a breathable garment bag, away from direct sunlight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a finished garment and requires no setup. It is ready to wear upon arrival.

Compatibility: This dress is designed for adult females. While specific styling can adapt it to various occasions, its inherent design leans towards formal or elegant casual wear.

Care Instructions: Due to the delicate nature of the fabric and potential embellishments, specialist cleaning is required. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying. Professional dry cleaning will help maintain the integrity and appearance of the garment. Ironing should be done with extreme care, possibly on a low heat setting and from the reverse side, or preferably steamed.
