How should I care for the gingham pattern?

To maintain the pattern's vibrancy, wash the dress in cold water, preferably on a gentle cycle, and avoid harsh detergents or high heat drying.

Troubleshooting

Dress appears wrinkled after washing

Ensure the dress is not over-dried in the machine. Remove promptly and hang or lay flat to dry. Iron on a low setting if necessary.

Shirred bodice feels too tight or loose

The shirred design offers some stretch. Ensure you have selected the correct size. For minor adjustments, consult a tailor.
