Does the dress have any stretch?

Troubleshooting
Beading appears loose or damaged
Carefully inspect the beading. For minor loose threads, gently trim them. For significantly loose or missing beads, consult a professional tailor or seamstress specializing in garment repair and beading.
Dress feels stiff after cleaning
This can sometimes occur with wool. Air the dress out in a well-ventilated area. If the stiffness persists, consult a dry cleaner to inquire about fabric finishing treatments.
Halter tie is uncomfortable
Ensure the halter tie is adjusted correctly for a snug but not tight fit. If discomfort persists, a tailor may be able to adjust the halter strap length or suggest alternative fastening methods.

Care Instructions:
- Dry Clean Only: Due to the delicate nature of the wool and intricate beading, professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the fabric's integrity and the embellishments.
