Troubleshooting

Lightly mist with water and hang in a humid room or use a steamer on a low setting.
Shirred bodice feels too tight
Ensure the garment is laid flat to air dry, as high heat in a dryer can cause the elastic shirring to contract further.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Since this garment is primarily constructed from natural fibers like linen and cotton, proper maintenance is essential. Always check the internal care label to confirm the specific fiber content of your size, as care instructions may differ slightly between linen and cotton versions. Generally, wash on a cool, gentle cycle to prevent shrinking and preserve the vibrancy of the red polka dot pattern. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as natural fibers tend to react poorly to excessive heat; instead, air dry flat to maintain the dress's shape. Iron while slightly damp if necessary to remove wrinkles from the linen components.
