This dress is perfect for short events like homecoming parties. Just slip it on and adjust the tie - back for a perfect fit. When it comes to cleaning, dry cleaning is recommended to keep the sequins in good condition. Avoid wearing it in rough or dirty environments to prevent the sequins from getting damaged. If you have it custom - sized, make sure to double - check your measurements before sending them. And if you're getting a different color, be aware that the actual color might vary slightly from what you see on your screen.
