This specific variant is engineered for petite proportions, which may result in a shorter length than expected on individuals who are not petite.
Store in a breathable garment bag, hung on a padded hanger to protect the pleats and the delicate spaghetti straps.
Direct ironing is not recommended as it may flatten the permanent pleating. Use a fabric steamer held at a distance.
Due to the delicate straps and fitted bodice, a seamless, skin-toned strapless bra or adhesive cups are recommended.
The ombre effect is consistent across the collection, though the scale of the pleating is designed to remain proportional to the size.
Hang the dress in a bathroom while running a hot shower to allow gentle steam to release wrinkles without direct contact.
Given the petite-specific cut, the straps are designed for a standard fit; if they slip, use discreet fashion tape to secure them in place.
To maintain the structural integrity of the pleating and the delicate organdie weave, avoid hanging the dress in direct sunlight or damp areas. We recommend using a padded hanger to support the spaghetti straps and prevent the fabric from stretching. Due to the fine pleats, this garment is not suitable for standard machine washing. Please consult a professional dry cleaner experienced in handling delicate woven fabrics. If minor wrinkles occur, a light steam from a distance is preferred over direct ironing, as excessive heat may flatten the deliberate pleating detail.
