Troubleshooting
Creasing after washing
Ensure the playsuit is ironed on a low heat setting while slightly damp, or use a pressing cloth to protect the fabric and lace.
Lace trim snagged or damaged
Handle with extreme care. Minor snags may be gently smoothed. For significant damage, professional repair might be necessary.
Fabric losing its sheen
Avoid harsh detergents and high heat during washing and drying. Air drying away from direct sunlight helps maintain the sateen finish.
Belt buckle becoming loose
Ensure the buckle is securely fastened. If the belt itself is damaged, consider a replacement of similar style.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Due to the delicate lace trim and cotton sateen fabric, hand washing is recommended. Use cool water and a mild detergent.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Gently squeeze out excess water and lay flat on a towel to air dry away from direct sunlight to preserve the fabric's sheen and prevent shrinkage.
