Are the beads secure?

Troubleshooting
Beads feel loose or detached
If a few beads are loose, they can often be carefully re-secured with a needle and thread. For significant damage, consult a professional tailor or dry cleaner experienced with embellishments.
Dress loses shape after cleaning
Ensure the dress was dried flat. For future cleaning, adhere strictly to the 'dry flat' instruction. Professional dry cleaning may be a safer option for preserving shape.
