Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your dress in optimal condition, always check the internal care label before the first wash. As the material is cotton, it is recommended to wash in cool water on a gentle cycle to prevent shrinking or premature fading of the red dye. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can damage the elastic smocking; instead, air drying on a hanger or laying flat is best. When storing, fold or hang in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the color integrity. The dress is true to size (UK 10), so standard sizing is recommended when pairing with accessories.
