Please refer to the retailer's specific return policy for details on returns and exchanges, as this information is not provided in the product details.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This is a finished garment, so 'setup' primarily refers to preparation for wear. Ensure the dress is properly steamed or ironed according to fabric care instructions before an event. Compatibility is based on your personal style and the event's dress code; it is designed to be a statement piece. Care instructions are crucial for maintaining the garment's integrity:
- Cleaning: Due to the tailored nature and cape detail, dry clean only is recommended to preserve the fabric's texture and shape.
- Ironing: If ironing is necessary, use a cool setting and iron on the reverse side. Avoid direct heat on any embellishments or delicate areas.
- Storage: Hang the dress on a padded or sturdy hanger to maintain its shape, especially around the shoulders and cape. Store in a garment bag to protect from dust and light.
