When your long-awaited dress arrives, the last thing you want to see are unsightly wrinkles. While our dresses are carefully packaged for safe delivery, the folding process can sometimes lead to creases but don't worry! We've got you covered with two effective methods to restore your dress to its wrinkle-free glory.
Method 1: Using a Garment Steamer
Steaming is a gentle yet powerful way to smooth out wrinkles without risking damage to your dress. Here's how to do it:
Get a garment steamer. You can buy one, rent one, or visit a dry cleaner for professional steaming.
Hang your dress on a sturdy hanger, ensuring it's fully extended.
Hold the steamer a few inches from the fabric and move it up and down. Start from the top and work your way down, focusing on wrinkled areas.
Gently smooth the fabric with your hands as you steam, being careful to avoid the hot steam.
Method 2: The Bathroom Steam Trick
No steamer? No problem! Your bathroom can double as a steaming room. Here's how:
Hang your dress in the bathroom, away from water and fixtures.
Run a hot shower or bath, closing the door to trap the steam.
Let the dress hang in the steamy environment for 15-20 minutes.
Gently smooth out any remaining wrinkles with your hands.
Warnings
Always check the care label before applying any heat-based method.
Avoid using an iron directly on the dress, as this may damage delicate fabrics or leave shiny marks.
When in doubt, seek help from a professional dry cleaner experienced with delicate garments.
