Troubleshooting
Dress feels too tight or uncomfortable
The dress has no stretch. Ensure you've selected the correct size based on the provided size chart. If fit is an issue, professional alterations by a tailor specializing in formal wear may be necessary, especially for the bodice.
Sequins or beads appear loose or damaged
Handle the dress with extreme care. If a few sequins or beads are loose, minor repairs can often be done with a needle and thread. For significant damage, consult a professional tailor or specialist cleaner experienced with embellished garments.
Tulle skirt is creased or wrinkled
Use a garment steamer to gently remove creases from the tulle. Hold the steamer a few inches away from the fabric and allow the steam to relax the fibers. Avoid pressing the steamer directly onto the tulle. Ensure proper storage after wearing to prevent future wrinkling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Wearing & Styling:
- Preparation: Ensure the dress is free of wrinkles before wearing. Steaming is recommended for the tulle skirt to achieve a smooth drape. Avoid direct heat on sequined areas.
- Fastening: The dress fastens with a rear concealed zip. Gently pull the zip up, ensuring no fabric or sequins get caught.
- Accessorizing: Complement the sophisticated design with delicate jewelry and appropriate footwear. The maxi length works well with heels to enhance the silhouette.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Due to the delicate embellishments and tulle, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to preserve the integrity of the sequins, beads, and fabric. If hand washing is necessary, use cold water with a mild detergent for delicate fabrics, wash gently, and avoid harsh scrubbing.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry on a clean, soft surface, or hang on a padded hanger away from direct sunlight.
- Ironing: If needed, iron on a very low heat setting, always on the reverse side and with a pressing cloth, avoiding direct contact with sequins and beads. Steaming is generally preferred for this type of fabric.
- Storage: Store the dress on a padded hanger in a breathable garment bag to protect it from dust and snags, especially for the embellished areas.
