Troubleshooting

Embroidery appears loose or snagged

Gently try to smooth the embroidery. If significantly damaged, professional dry cleaning with repair might be an option, but avoid pulling.

Dress feels too sheer

Consider wearing a slip or a fine, neutral-colored underdress for added coverage, depending on the occasion and personal preference.

Creases are difficult to remove

Ensure the dress is dry cleaned. If a very light press is needed, use the coolest iron setting on the reverse side, potentially with a pressing cloth, but professional steaming is the safest option.
