Troubleshooting

Dress does not fit correctly

Refer to the detailed size chart provided. Consider the approximate length (120cm) and your personal height. If unsure between sizes, the princess seams and fitted waist may offer some flexibility, but choosing the closest fit is recommended.

Fabric feels delicate

Handle with care during washing and drying. Avoid harsh detergents or high heat settings. Gentle care will preserve the fabric's texture and the dress's overall integrity.

Zipper is difficult to use

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, a small amount of lubricant like graphite pencil lead rubbed on the teeth can sometimes help.
