Fabric feels rough after washing

Ensure you are using a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive heat during drying.

Ruching appears uneven

Gently smooth the fabric. If the issue persists after washing and drying according to instructions, it may be a manufacturing inconsistency. Consult the retailer.

Hardware detail is tarnished
