To use this dress, simply put it on like any other gown. Step into it from the bottom and adjust the top to fit comfortably. For the best look, make sure the side slit falls at a flattering angle. When it comes to care, dry - clean this satin dress to keep its shine and shape. Avoid getting it wet in normal circumstances as it may cause stains or shrinkage. Store it on a wide - shouldered hanger in a cool, dry place to prevent wrinkles. If you've ordered a custom - sized dress, double - check your measurements before placing the order to ensure a perfect fit.
