Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after storage

Gently steam the dress on a low heat setting or have it professionally pressed. Avoid direct high heat when ironing.

Fabric feels stiff or loses shape

Bow tie detail is misshapen

Carefully reshape the bow tie while the fabric is slightly damp or after steaming. Ensure it is laid flat to dry naturally.
