Troubleshooting

Dress does not drape as expected.

Ensure the dress is hung properly on a padded hanger. Wool can sometimes hold creases; steaming on a low setting may help restore its intended drape. Verify correct sizing.

Hardware detail appears tarnished or loose.

Gently polish the hardware with a soft, dry cloth. If loose, consult a tailor for secure reattachment. Avoid abrasive cleaners on the hardware.

Knit appears stretched or misshapen after washing.

This may indicate improper washing or drying. Ensure you followed cold hand wash or dry clean instructions and laid flat to dry. Gentle reshaping while damp can sometimes help.

Pilling on the wool fabric.

Pilling is natural for wool. Use a fabric shaver or a fine-tooth comb to gently remove pills. Avoid excessive friction during wear.
