Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your velvet midi dress, always store it on a padded hanger to avoid shoulder dimples from the thin straps. When traveling, use a garment bag to prevent the velvet pile from being crushed against other items. Given the nature of the velvet material, avoid direct contact with heavy perfumes or oils that may mark the fabric. For cleaning, check the interior garment label; it is generally recommended to hand wash in cold water with mild detergent or use a professional dry-cleaning service to maintain the integrity of the fabric's sheen and texture.
