Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled

Gently steam the dress while damp or use a cool iron. Linen naturally wrinkles; this is part of its characteristic texture. Hanging the dress in a steamy bathroom can also help reduce wrinkles.

Fading of the white color

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Wash with a mild detergent suitable for white fabrics and dry away from direct sunlight.

Shrinking after washing

Ensure you are washing in cold water and air-drying. Avoid high heat in washing or drying cycles.
