Troubleshooting

Dress wrinkles easily

Hang the dress immediately after wearing. If minor wrinkles appear, use a steamer on a low setting or iron on the reverse side with low heat. Ensure it is fully dry before storing.

Colour bleeding during cleaning

Always follow the 'Dry Clean Only' instruction. Use a reputable dry cleaner experienced with delicate fabrics and bold patterns to minimize the risk of colour bleeding.

Tailored fit feels too restrictive

The stretch fabric provides some give. If the fit is uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate. For minor adjustments, consult a tailor for alterations rather than attempting to stretch the fabric.
