Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after storage or travel.

Gently steam the dress on a low heat setting, keeping the iron a safe distance from the fabric. Alternatively, hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period.

Peplum detail is not holding its shape.

Ensure the dress has been stored correctly on a suitable hanger. Professional dry cleaning can help restore the garment's structure.

Visible bra lines or poor fit with strapless design.
