Troubleshooting

Dress appears creased after storage

Gently steam the dress on a cool setting or iron on the reverse side with a cool iron. Hanging the dress in a steamy bathroom can also help relax creases.

Fabric seems to have lost its texture

Ensure the dress is cared for according to the recommended dry clean only instructions. Avoid washing or machine drying, which can damage the crinkle chiffon.

Halterneck tie is difficult to secure evenly

Practice tying the halterneck in front of a mirror to ensure even tension. Lay the dress flat and adjust the tie for symmetry before final fastening.

Care Instructions:

  • Material: 100% Polyester
  • Washing: Due to the delicate nature of the crinkle chiffon fabric and tiered ruffle detailing, professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the fabric's integrity and shape.
  • Ironing: If ironing is necessary, use a cool iron setting and iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Avoid direct heat on embellishments or prints. Steaming is often a gentler alternative for removing wrinkles.
  • Storage: Hang the dress on a padded or silk hanger to prevent stretching or creasing, especially at the shoulders. Store in a breathable garment bag away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
