Troubleshooting

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. Avoid direct heat on embroidery.

Embroidery threads appear loose.

Do not pull at loose threads. Carefully snip any stray threads with sharp fabric scissors close to the fabric surface.

Fabric snagged or torn.

For minor snags, try to gently pull the snagged thread back through to the reverse side. For tears, professional repair by a seamstress may be required.
