Washing:
Hand wash: For delicate fabrics like lace, silk, or embroidery, hand wash with cold water and mild detergent. - Machine wash: If machine washable, use a gentle cycle and cold water to preserve fabric quality.
- Avoid harsh detergents: Use mild, gentle detergents to prevent fabric damage.
-
Drying:
Air dry: Lay flat or hang on a hanger to air dry, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fading. - Avoid tumble drying: High heat can shrink or damage the fabric. If necessary, use a low-heat setting.

Ironing:
Low heat: Use a low heat setting for delicate fabrics. Place a cloth between the iron and dress to avoid direct contact. - Steam: Steaming is a gentle alternative to remove wrinkles without damaging delicate fabrics.

- Dry Cleaning: For delicate fabrics like silk, velvet, or heavily embellished dresses, opt for professional dry cleaning.
