Troubleshooting
Dress appears creased upon arrival
This is common with linen blends. Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period or iron on a low setting following care instructions.
Gold hardware losing its shine
Gently polish the hardware with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or exposing it to harsh chemicals.
Belt does not cinch effectively
Ensure the belt is threaded through the loops correctly and tightened to your preference. The design is intended to cinch, not create a tight closure.
