To preserve the beauty, draping, and sophisticated appearance of your PERSEPOLIS™ Élan Evening Dress, follow these recommended garment-care instructions.
Professional Cleaning: Professional dry cleaning is recommended for delicate formalwear and structured evening garments.
Washing: Avoid machine washing unless permitted by the garment's care label.
Bleaching: Do not bleach or use harsh chemical whitening products.
Ironing: Use low heat with a protective pressing cloth when necessary. Avoid pressing directly onto delicate draped sections.
Steaming: Gentle steaming may be used to reduce wrinkles and refresh the fabric. Maintain a suitable distance to avoid excessive moisture or heat.
Drying: Do not tumble dry. Allow the garment to dry naturally according to its care-label instructions.
Draping Care: Handle the gathered waist and bodice carefully to preserve the arrangement of fabric folds.
Slit Protection: Avoid excessive pulling or tension around the side slit and adjoining seams.
Storage: Hang on a suitable padded hanger to help maintain the neckline, shoulder construction, and overall silhouette.
Garment Protection: Store in a breathable garment bag to protect against dust and unnecessary contact with other clothing.
Sunlight: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to help maintain the midnight-navy color.
Fabric Protection: Keep away from sharp jewelry, rough accessories, and abrasive surfaces that may snag the fabric.
Long-Term Preservation: Store in a cool, dry wardrobe with sufficient space to prevent compression of the draped bodice and flowing skirt.
