Does the dress run true to size?

Can this dress be altered?

While alterations are possible, it is advisable to consult with a professional tailor experienced with delicate fabrics and structured garments to preserve the design integrity, especially the balloon sleeves and pin-tucks.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after storage.

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or consult a professional dry cleaner for steaming services. Avoid direct ironing unless absolutely necessary, and use a cool setting on the reverse.

Sleeves have lost their shape.

Gently reshape the sleeves while the garment is slightly damp or after professional steaming. Ensure proper storage on a padded hanger.

Pin-tucks appear flattened.

Professional pressing is recommended to restore the definition of the pin-tucks without damaging the fabric.
