How should I clean the dress?
The dress must be dry cleaned only to maintain the quality of the silk and lace. Avoid washing or ironing.

Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after storage
Hang the dress and allow it to steam in a bathroom with a hot shower running. For stubborn wrinkles, consult a professional dry cleaner for silk-safe steaming.

Attempt to gently smooth the snagged thread back into place. If the lace is significantly damaged, professional repair by a seamstress specializing in delicate fabrics may be necessary.
