Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and shape of the dress, it is recommended to follow specific care guidelines. Given the cotton poplin material and boned bodice, dry cleaning is typically the preferred method. If hand washing is attempted, use cool water and a mild detergent, avoiding harsh wringing.
