Troubleshooting

Wool fabric feels itchy

Ensure the dress is properly cared for according to instructions. Sometimes, a hand wash with a wool-specific softener can improve comfort. Wearing a thin layer underneath can also help.

Fringe detailing becoming tangled

Gently detangle the fringe with your fingers. Avoid vigorous brushing. If necessary, a very light steam can help relax the fibers.

Dress loses shape after washing

Ensure you are strictly following the hand wash or dry clean instructions and laying the garment flat to dry. Avoid machine washing or harsh spin cycles.

Pattern appears to be stretching or distorting

This can happen with knits if they are handled roughly or stored improperly. Ensure the dress is stored folded and avoid over-stretching during wear or washing.
