Troubleshooting

Fabric appears creased after storage

Hang the garment on a padded hanger in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or consult a professional dry cleaner for proper pressing.

Hook fastening is difficult to close

Ensure the fabric around the hook and eye is not bunched up. Gently guide the hook into the eye, ensuring alignment. If issues persist, consult a tailor for adjustment.

Dress does not drape as expected

Ensure the correct size has been selected. The fit is designed to be slim. Viscose can be sensitive to moisture, so ensure it is completely dry and properly stored.
