Troubleshooting
Doll is unstable on its stand.
Ensure the doll is properly seated on the stand's clip or base. Check that the stand itself is on a level surface.
Tulle on the gown appears creased.
Gently steam the tulle from a distance (do not touch the doll with the steamer) or allow the gown to hang for several days to let creases fall out naturally. Avoid direct ironing.
