How should I care for the compact stretch fabric?
Follow the care instructions diligently: machine wash at 30°C or hand wash, do not bleach, lay flat to dry or tumble dry low, and iron on a low setting.

Troubleshooting
Dress appears creased after washing or packing.
Gently iron on a low setting, or hang the dress in a steamy bathroom to allow creases to fall out. Ensure the garment is completely dry before ironing.
Fabric feels stiff or less comfortable than expected.
Ensure the care instructions are followed precisely. Sometimes, a gentle wash can soften the fabric. Avoid harsh detergents or high heat during drying.
Sizing feels off or not as expected.
