Setup, Compatibility & Care
Since this is a ready-to-wear garment, there is no setup required. To maintain the integrity of the fabric and the shirred bodice, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent.
- Drying: Air dry is recommended to prevent shrinkage or damage to the elasticized smocking. Avoid high-heat tumble drying.

- Compatibility: This dress pairs well with a variety of summer footwear and light layering pieces like denim jackets for cooler evenings.
