Troubleshooting
Dress feels itchy
As the dress contains wool, some initial itchiness may occur. Wearing a fine-knit base layer underneath can provide a barrier. If itchiness persists, consider airing the garment or checking for sensitive skin reactions.
Fabric looks creased after storage
Gently hang the dress in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or use a cool iron on the reverse side. Ensure the dress is fully dry before re-folding or storing.
Shrinkage after washing
This is often due to improper washing. Always adhere to the 'hand wash or dry clean only' instruction. If minor shrinkage occurs, try gently stretching the damp fabric back into shape while laying flat to dry.
