Troubleshooting
Dress appears to have shrunk after washing
Ensure you followed the recommended washing and drying instructions. If tumble-dried, use a low heat setting or opt for air drying. Cotton can experience slight shrinkage, so sizing up might be considered if significant shrinkage is a concern.
Wrinkles are prominent after drying
Remove the dress from the dryer promptly, or hang it to dry. If wrinkles persist, iron on a low heat setting while the garment is slightly damp, or use a steamer.
Zipper is difficult to use
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If needed, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax can help lubricate the teeth.
