How should I clean this dress?

It is essential to dry clean this dress only. Due to the delicate embellishments, it should be handled by a professional cleaner experienced with such garments.

Are the beads and embroidery durable?

The beading and embroidery are designed with craftsmanship, but they are delicate embellishments. Careful handling and proper care are crucial to maintain their condition.

Troubleshooting

Beading or embroidery becoming loose

Gently try to re-secure any loose threads by hand. For significant issues, consult a professional tailor specializing in delicate garments.

Fabric feels stiff after cleaning

Ensure the dry cleaner is experienced with embellished garments. If stiffness persists, a gentle steam (from a distance, never direct contact) might help, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Dress has lost some of its shape

Hang the dress on a padded hanger and allow it to rest. Proper storage and handling should help it regain its natural drape. Professional reshaping by a tailor may be an option.
