Dress appears wrinkled upon arrival
Gently steam the dress on a cool setting, focusing on the reverse side, or hang it in a steamy bathroom. Professional dry cleaning and cool ironing are also options.

Ensure the dress is laid flat and smooth. Minor unevenness may be a characteristic of the design; if significant, consult the retailer.
