Troubleshooting

Dress does not hang correctly or loses shape.

Ensure the dress is stored on a padded hanger and has ample space in the wardrobe. Professional dry cleaning or steaming may help restore the garment's structure.

Visible bra lines or lack of support.

Opt for seamless, strapless undergarments or a structured bustier. Consider using fashion tape for extra security if needed.

Minor creasing on the satin fabric.

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period. If creases persist, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric only, or consult a professional cleaner.

Attempt to gently pull the snag from the reverse side if possible. For more significant snags, professional repair is recommended to avoid damaging the fabric.
