Troubleshooting
Applique threads are loose
Gently trim any stray threads with small, sharp scissors. Do not pull on loose threads, as this can damage the applique. For significant issues, consult a professional tailor.
Organdie fabric appears creased
Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or use a garment steamer on a very low setting, holding it at a distance. Alternatively, iron on a cool setting from the reverse side.
General wear and tear on embellishments
Inspect the applique regularly for any signs of detachment. Minor issues can sometimes be repaired by a skilled seamstress using fine thread matching the applique color.
