Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after washing.

Iron the dress on a medium heat setting while slightly damp. Alternatively, use a steam setting on your iron.

Color seems to fade after a few washes.

Ensure you are washing with similar colors in cold water and avoiding harsh detergents or bleach.

Dress feels slightly tight or restrictive.

Review the size chart and compare with your measurements. Consider if a larger size might be more comfortable, especially if you prefer a looser fit than the 'smock' style typically offers.

Frill detailing looks uneven.

Gently adjust the frills by hand after washing and drying. If significantly uneven, consult the care label for specific instructions or seek professional garment care.
