Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after washing.
Ensure you are either tumble drying on low or, preferably, laying flat to dry. Use a low-heat iron or steamer on the garment, ideally inside out.
Fabric feels less soft or has faded.
Always wash with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive use of fabric softener, which can build up on cotton fibers over time.
Tie detail comes undone easily.
Ensure you are tying a secure knot (e.g., a double knot) or a bow that holds well. Adjust the tension to your comfort level.
Dress attracts lint or pet hair.
Use a lint roller regularly. Wash the dress inside out and consider air-drying to minimize static cling that attracts lint.

Care Instructions
Proper care will help maintain the dress's comfort, color, and shape. Given its cotton jersey material, follow these guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with similar colors. Use a gentle cycle to prevent stretching or damage to the fabric. Turn the dress inside out before washing to protect the exterior.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can damage the fabric and cause color fading.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, lay flat to dry to help prevent shrinking and maintain the dress's original shape. Avoid high heat.
- Ironing: If needed, iron on a low heat setting. For best results, iron the dress inside out to protect the fabric's surface. A steamer can also be used to remove wrinkles.
- Storage: Hang the dress in your closet to prevent creasing and maintain its shape.
