Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after storage.

Gently steam the dress on a low setting or hang it in a steamy bathroom. If necessary, iron on the reverse side with a cool iron.

Fabric seems stiff or less fluid than expected.

This is characteristic of the structured crepe fabric, designed to hold its shape. Ensure it is properly hung to allow the fabric to naturally relax.

Minor snags or pulls in the fabric.

For small snags, try to gently pull the fabric back into place from the reverse side. For more significant damage, professional repair is advised.
