Troubleshooting
Dress appears creased after storage
Gently steam the garment on a low setting or have it professionally dry cleaned and pressed. Avoid direct ironing on high heat.

Ensure the dress is dry cleaned only. Avoid washing with water, which can alter the structure of the crepe. Store on a hanger.
