Troubleshooting

Dress doesn't hang correctly

Ensure the belt is properly tied and cinched at the natural waist. Check for any creases or wrinkles that may need steaming or light ironing on a low setting.

Cape sleeves feel restrictive

This is unlikely given the design intent. Ensure you are wearing the correct size. The cape is designed to provide movement, not be tight.

Fabric appears dull after wear

Follow recommended dry cleaning procedures. Avoid harsh detergents or excessive heat when steaming.
