How should I care for this dress?

What is the length of the dress?
The dress is a maxi length, meaning it extends to the floor, with a subtle fishtail hem for added movement.

Troubleshooting
Fabric appears creased
Hang the garment on a padded hanger and allow it to naturally de-crease. If creases persist, professional dry cleaning with steam pressing is recommended. Avoid ironing directly on the fabric.
Dress does not drape as expected
Ensure the dress is hanging correctly. The satin viscose fabric is designed to drape; allow it to settle on a hanger. Consider if the size is correct for your body shape, as the form-defining silhouette is key to its intended look.
Snagging on the satin fabric
Be mindful of accessories, jewellery, and surfaces that could potentially snag the delicate satin fabric. If a snag occurs, do not pull it, as this can worsen the damage. Consult a tailor for potential repair options.
