Material Quality & Care Instructions
Fabric Benefits: The premium cotton construction offers breathability, durability, and easy maintenance—essential qualities for a wardrobe staple. Cotton naturally resists wrinkles, maintains its shape through repeated wear, and becomes softer with each wash.
Recommended Care: Hand wash in cool water with gentle detergent to preserve the integrity of the lace trims and maintain the dress’s structured silhouette. Air dry flat or hang to prevent distortion. Avoid bleach and high-heat drying. For the corset-back lacing, ensure knots are secure before washing to prevent tangling.
