Troubleshooting

Wrinkles in the satin fabric

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your dress remains in excellent condition, treat the satin with care. Due to the nature of the viscose satin crepe, avoid contact with rough surfaces or sharp accessories that could cause pulls.

Care Instructions:

  1. Always check the internal garment tag for specific wash instructions.
  2. We recommend professional dry cleaning to maintain the structure of the ruched waist and the integrity of the fabric.
  3. If storing, use a padded hanger to prevent shoulder stretching or permanent creases.
  4. Avoid direct sunlight during long-term storage to prevent color fading of the blue fabric.
