Troubleshooting

Visible wrinkles in cotton fabric

Use a garment steamer or a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric to smooth out creases.

Embroidery thread snagged

Use a small pair of fabric scissors to carefully trim any loose threads; do not pull them as this may unravel the pattern.

Fit feels too snug at the waist

Ensure the back shirring is fully extended and not caught on undergarments, allowing the natural stretch of the shirred panel to accommodate movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the Aoife Dress is made from cotton with delicate floral embroidery, proper care is essential to extend its lifespan. It is recommended to wash the garment in cool water using a gentle detergent, ideally inside a mesh laundry bag to protect the embroidery from snagging. Avoid tumble drying on high heat, as cotton can be prone to shrinking; instead, air dry the dress flat or on a hanger out of direct sunlight. To maintain the crisp look of the puff sleeves and the empire silhouette, a light steam or cool iron may be used, being careful to avoid pressing directly over the embroidered areas.
