Troubleshooting

Dress appears too long

As this is a maxi dress designed for petite frames, minor adjustments for exact personal height may be needed. Consider professional hemming for a perfect fit.

Fabric is wrinkled

Gently iron the dress on a low setting. For significant wrinkles, steaming or professional dry cleaning may be more effective for linen blends.

Straps are not fitting correctly

The strappy detail is a design feature. Ensure the dress is the correct size. For minor fit adjustments, consult a tailor.
