Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after storage
Hang the dress on a padded hanger and allow it to air out. For stubborn wrinkles, use a garment steamer on a low setting or iron with a pressing cloth on a low heat, focusing on the reverse side of the fabric.
Fabric feels rough or loses texture
Ensure you are following the recommended care instructions, likely professional dry cleaning. Avoid harsh detergents or excessive agitation if hand washing.
