Troubleshooting
Shimmer effect appears to be fading after washing.
Ensure you are washing on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water. Avoid harsh detergents and high heat during drying or ironing.
Dress feels slightly transparent.
The dress has a lining, but for added modesty or in bright lighting, consider wearing a slip underneath.
Fabric has snagged.
Chiffon is delicate. Be mindful of jewelry, rough surfaces, and sharp objects. Minor snags may be carefully trimmed with small scissors.
Tie waist is difficult to secure.
Ensure the fabric is smooth before tying. Experiment with different knotting techniques for a secure hold. The tie can also be adjusted for comfort.
