Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after storage.

Gently steam the dress on a low setting or hang it in a steamy bathroom. If necessary, iron on a very low heat setting from the reverse side.

Bead embellishments feel loose.

Carefully re-secure any loose beads by hand stitching with matching thread. Avoid pulling or tugging on the embellishments.

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent specifically for delicate fabrics and rinsing thoroughly. Laying flat to dry can help maintain fabric softness.
