Troubleshooting
Embroidery appears snagged or pulled.
Gently try to smooth the affected threads. If significantly damaged, consult a professional tailor specializing in delicate fabrics and embroidery.
Dress has lost its shape after cleaning.
Ensure the dress was dry cleaned according to instructions. If slight reshaping is needed, professional pressing may help restore its original structure. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.
