Are the embellishments securely attached?

Troubleshooting

Fabric snag or pull

For minor snags, attempt to gently pull the fabric back into place. For significant pulls, professional repair is recommended to avoid further damage.

Embellishment comes loose

If an embellishment is loose, carefully re-stitch it using a fine needle and matching thread. If it has fallen off completely, try to locate it and consult a tailor for reattachment.
