Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this dress uses a natural cotton poplin weave, initial care involves checking the fit via the adjustable straps and tie-side waist to ensure the shirred bodice sits correctly.

Care Instructions:

  1. Always check the internal garment tag for specific temperature settings.
  2. Wash on a delicate cycle with like colors to prevent the vibrant floral print from fading.
  3. Hang dry to prevent shrinkage and maintain the structure of the tiered skirt.
  4. Use a low-heat steam iron to remove wrinkles, paying special attention to the contrast binding to avoid melting or damage.
