Troubleshooting
Dress appears to have shrunk after washing
Linen can naturally shrink slightly. Ensure you followed the washing and drying instructions carefully. If shrinkage is significant, try stretching the garment gently while damp or consider professional re-shaping.
Color fading unevenly
Due to the garment-dyeing process, slight variations in color are normal. If you notice significant uneven fading, ensure you are washing with similar colors and avoiding harsh detergents or prolonged sun exposure during drying.
Wrinkles are difficult to remove
Linen is naturally prone to wrinkling. Try ironing the dress while it is slightly damp or use a steam iron. A fabric steamer can also be effective. Avoid over-drying in the machine, as this can set wrinkles.
Buttons feel loose
Gently reinforce the buttons by hand-stitching them more securely. Ensure the thread used matches the fabric color if possible.
