Setup, Compatibility & Care
This dress is designed for a true-to-size fit within the petite range. When incorporating this into your wardrobe, consider the 120cm length to ensure it falls at your preferred midi-position. To maintain the integrity of the textured polyester fabric and the pleats, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cool water to preserve the texture.
- Drying: Air dry on a hanger to keep the pleats aligned and minimize the need for ironing.
- Ironing: Use a low-heat setting or a garment steamer if needed, being careful not to press too hard on the pleated sections.
- Storage: Store on a wide-shouldered hanger to prevent the neckline from stretching and to keep the princess seams smooth.
