Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Apricot dress remains in top condition, follow these care instructions. Due to the woven cotton construction, it is recommended to machine wash on a delicate cycle using cold water to prevent shrinking or damage to the fabric pattern. Avoid high-heat tumble drying; instead, hang the dress to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight. When ironing, use a low-heat setting to avoid scorching the fabric, and consider using a garment steamer for a safer, smoother finish.
