Troubleshooting
Top appears wrinkled after washing.
Iron on a low-heat setting, preferably inside out, or steam gently. Air dry by hanging immediately after washing to help reduce wrinkles.
Ruffles seem flattened or misshapen.
Gently reshape ruffles by hand while the garment is damp and allow to air dry. Avoid harsh wringing during washing or excessive tumbling in a dryer.
Color fading or print dulling over time.
Always wash with similar colors in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid direct and prolonged exposure to strong sunlight during drying, as this can cause fading.
Top feels static clingy.
Use a fabric softener during washing or apply a static guard spray before wearing. Polyester fabric can be prone to static electricity.
Top feels uncomfortable or too warm.
While designed for cooler days, if worn in warmer environments, consider pairing with lighter layering pieces. Polyester's breathability is different from natural fibers.
