Troubleshooting

Creases in the cape overlay

Use a steamer at a low setting or hang in a steamy bathroom to gently release wrinkles without applying direct heat to the fabric.

Gold-tone buckle appears dull

Gently wipe the buckle with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to restore its shine and remove fingerprints.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your dress remains in peak condition, always store it hanging upright in a breathable garment bag to prevent the cape from creasing. When putting on the dress, step in carefully to avoid snagging the fabric on the gold-tone buckle. For care, it is advised to check the garment's internal care label; generally, the compact viscose material benefits from professional dry cleaning to ensure the structured fabric retains its integrity and the gold-tone hardware remains untarnished. If the dress feels too long, consult a professional tailor to have the floor-grazing hem adjusted to your specific height without compromising the dress's architectural lines.
