Troubleshooting

Hang the dress on a padded hanger and allow it to air out. For stubborn creases, consult the care label; professional steaming or a very low heat iron on the reverse side may be advised for specific fabrics.

Fit is not as expected

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. The tailoring is designed for a specific silhouette; consider if the intended fit is being achieved.
