Troubleshooting
Embroidery threads snagging
Carefully trim any snagged threads with sharp fabric scissors. Avoid pulling on the snagged thread, as this can distort the embroidery pattern. Store the dress carefully to prevent future snags.
Dress appears wrinkled after storage
Hang the dress to allow wrinkles to fall out naturally. If persistent, steam the dress on a low setting, being careful not to press directly onto the embroidery. Alternatively, dry clean as per instructions.
Lining feels uncomfortable
Ensure the dress is the correct size. The full cotton lining is designed for breathability, but ensure no inner seams are irritating the skin. If the issue persists, consider consulting a tailor for minor adjustments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This is a garment, not an electronic device, so 'setup' primarily refers to styling. Compatibility is with personal style and occasion. Care instructions are crucial for maintaining the dress's intricate details.
- Styling: As seen on the model, keep accessories understated. A simple fine-chain necklace and minimal earrings will allow the embroidery to remain the focal point. Consider strappy heeled sandals or elegant flat mules.
- Care: Due to the delicate nature of the embroidery and cutwork, dry clean only is recommended to preserve the fabric and intricate detailing. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying. Iron on a low setting, preferably with a pressing cloth over the embroidered areas.
