Does the belt come off?

What kind of undergarments should I wear?
The dress is fully lined, but a seamless nude slip or appropriate shapewear is recommended for a smooth finish.

Troubleshooting
Visible creasing upon removal from packaging
Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom or use a garment steamer on a low, cool setting, keeping distance from the fabric.

Lightly mist the lining with an anti-static spray or run a metal hanger over the inside of the fabric before wearing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your garment, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Due to the delicate nature of the crepe fabric, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to preserve the shape and texture.
- Storage: Always hang the dress on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder bumps and fabric stretching.
- Styling Compatibility: The dress is best paired with strappy heels or formal pumps. If attending a race day, it coordinates beautifully with fascinators and a structured clutch.
- Travel: When packing, use a garment bag to avoid snagging the fabric and to minimize wrinkling.
