How should I care for the sateen fabric?
The sateen fabric should ideally be dry cleaned only to maintain its luster and prevent damage. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.
Can the drama sleeves be altered?
While alterations are possible, it is recommended to consult a professional tailor experienced with delicate fabrics and complex designs to ensure the sleeve's structure is maintained.

The UK size 6 is a standard small size. For detailed measurements, refer to the brand's specific size chart if available.
