Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your velvet prom dress, it is essential to store it on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder indentation from the taffeta bows. When preparing for an event, if the velvet appears crushed, use a garment steamer at a distance to gently release any wrinkles; never press the iron directly onto the velvet pile. Due to the delicate nature of the velvet material, this garment should be professionally dry cleaned only. Avoid contact with perfumes and heavy makeup near the neckline to prevent staining the velvet fibers. When styling, coordinate with minimalist footwear to avoid drawing attention away from the detailed shoulder bows and the rich texture of the fabric.
