Setup, Compatibility & Care
Preparing Your Dress
Upon receiving your dress, carefully remove it from its packaging. Hang the dress immediately on a padded hanger, using the internal hanging loops provided, not the shoulder straps, to maintain its shape and prevent stretching. Allow it to hang freely in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to minimize wrinkles.
Compatibility & Styling Notes
This dress is designed to be the focal point of your bridal ensemble. It pairs best with understated accessories to let its intricate details shine. Consider seamless undergarments that accommodate a low back. For photography, the flowing tulle and sparkling embellishments are particularly photogenic, especially in natural light and during movement.
Product Care & Maintenance
Due to the delicate nature of the floral embellishments, glass beads, sequins, and tulle fabric, proper care is crucial to maintain the dress's beauty and integrity.
- Cleaning: Professional dry cleaning specializing in bridal wear is *highly recommended*. Inform your cleaner about the delicate embellishments and fabric type. Do not attempt machine washing or harsh spot cleaning.
- Storage: Store the dress in a breathable, acid-free garment bag in a cool, dry, dark place. Avoid plastic garment bags as they can trap moisture and potentially damage delicate fabrics or embellishments over time. Ensure the dress is fully dry before storage.
- Handling: Always handle the dress with clean hands. Avoid snagging the tulle or catching the embellishments on jewellery or rough surfaces. When moving the dress, support its weight from the bottom rather than pulling on straps or the top.
- Wrinkle Removal: If wrinkles occur, hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period. Alternatively, use a garment steamer on a very low setting, holding it several inches away from the fabric, especially the embellished areas. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
