Care & Maintenance Instructions
To preserve the beauty and longevity of your Sweet Lolita dress, hand washing is recommended. Use cool water with mild detergent, gently agitating the fabric without wringing. For the delicate lace trim and appliqués, avoid aggressive rubbing. Lay flat on a clean towel to dry away from direct sunlight, which could fade the vibrant pink and green hues. Store in a cool, dry place, preferably on a padded hanger to maintain the dress’s shape and prevent creasing.
