Does the dress come in other sizes or colors?

Can the length of the dress be altered?

Troubleshooting

Creasing in polyester fabric

Use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric. If creases are stubborn, consider professional dry cleaning as they can often manage difficult wrinkles.

Lace trim snagged or damaged

Carefully attempt to smooth out snags with tweezers. For significant damage, consult a professional tailor or seamstress for repair.

Dress appears dull after cleaning

Ensure you are following the 'dry clean only' instructions. If the issue persists, the fabric may have been exposed to harsh chemicals or excessive heat during cleaning.

Fit is not as expected
