Troubleshooting

Dress does not fit as expected.

Refer to the size guide for accurate measurements. As this is a petite fit, ensure it aligns with your height and proportions. Consider alternative sizes or styles if the fit is not suitable.

Fabric appears creased after washing.

Ensure the dress is ironed on a medium setting according to the care label instructions. Hanging the dress immediately after washing can also help minimize creasing.

Frill neck detail looks uneven.

Gently adjust the frill by hand. If persistent, a light steam or iron on a low setting, following care instructions, may help reset the fabric.
