Ensure the dry cleaning process was gentle and appropriate for silk blends. Avoid any contact with water or harsh chemicals. If stiffness persists, consult a specialized dry cleaner.

Buttons appear loose or damaged

Mother-of-pearl buttons can be delicate. Handle with care. If a button becomes loose, consult a tailor for professional reattachment. Do not attempt to force or pull buttons.
