How should I care for the beaded embellishments?

Can the cape be detached?

Troubleshooting

Beads become loose or detached

Carefully re-attach using a fine needle and matching thread. For significant damage, consult a professional tailor.

Dress appears creased after storage

Hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period or use a cool iron on the reverse side as per care instructions.

Wool fabric feels itchy

Ensure the garment is properly lined. Wearing a fine slip underneath can also enhance comfort.
