Product Care and Usage Guide SM FASHION provides professional care recommendations for each product to ensure comfort and longevity:
Flower Girl Dress
Wearing Recommendations Sizing: Allow 1-2cm of free space (especially around the shoulders and midriff) to avoid feeling restricted when running. Inner Layer: Wear a seamless white base shirt or pants to prevent static cling and maintain the dress's pristine appearance. Securing: Check the beads and bow for secure attachment before wearing. Reinforce any loose parts with invisible stitching.
Care Instructions Cleaning: Machine wash on the gentle cycle (water temperature ≤ 30°C) with a neutral detergent. Dry clean is recommended for silk/lace fabrics. Storage: Hang in a breathable cover to avoid wrinkling. For long-term storage, place a camphorwood strip to prevent insects. Emergency Treatment: Pat light stains with a damp cloth dipped in baking soda. Avoid rubbing vigorously, which may cause the yarn to shift.
Precautions Avoid running on rough surfaces (such as concrete) to prevent snagging and dragging. Remove within 2 hours after the ceremony to avoid perspiration and yellowing of the fabric.
Petticoat and Bustle
Wearing Recommendations Layering Order: Wear the bustle first (adjust to fit snugly around your waist), then the petticoat (ensure the hem evenly covers the bustle frame). Body Adjustment: The steel-bone bustle can be adjusted for volume using the side drawstrings. For herringbone styles, ensure that no protrusions are visible.
Care Instructions Cleaning: We recommend spot-wiping the bustle (the boning area is not washable). The petticoat is machine washable, inside out, in a laundry bag. Storage: Store the bustle flat or hang it (avoid folding, which may cause the boning to deform). When stacking petticoats, place acid-free paper between them to protect them from moisture. Seasonal Maintenance: Dry the bustle lining with a hairdryer on low heat before the rainy season to prevent mildew. Notes Do not sit on a stool or bend over while wearing the bustle, as this may cause the boning to distort. The petticoat should be 3-5 cm longer than the outer gown to prevent it from showing when walking.
Boys' Dresses
Accessory Tieing: The bow tie/necktie should be long enough to just reach the belt. After tightening, cufflinks should be buckled halfway to prevent them from falling off. Shirt Fitting: The shoulder line should be aligned with the acromion of the jacket, leaving 1-2cm of cuffs visible to prevent curling during activity.
Care Instructions Suit Cleaning: Dry cleaning is recommended for wool and blended fabrics. Cotton can be machine washed but should be laid flat to dry to prevent shrinkage. Leather Shoe Care: Use colorless shoe cream. Stuff newspaper immediately after wearing in the rain to absorb moisture and prevent mold. Tie Styling: Roll the tie into a tube when storing and place it in a tie box. Avoid folding, which can cause creases.
Notes Do not use bleach to clean white shirts, as this may weaken the fabric. It is recommended that bow ties be worn for 4 hours or less to avoid neck pressure.
Bridal Veil and Accessories
Wearing Tips Securing the Headdress: Hairpins should penetrate the veil and the hairnet. U-shaped clips are more secure than straight clips. Train Adjustment: For veils with long trains, bridesmaids are recommended to assist in adjusting them to avoid stepping on them and causing tears.
Maintenance Instructions Veil Cleaning: Silk/pearl veils should be dry-cleaned. Lace veils can be gently hand-washed with shampoo (water temperature ≤ 25°C). Accessory Storage: Pearl/crystal jewelry should be individually wrapped in a soft cloth bag to avoid scratches from contact with hard objects. Anti-oxidation Treatment: Apply clear nail polish to metal headpieces and reapply annually to prevent rust.
Precautions Do not allow hairspray to come into direct contact with the veil, as this may cause it to harden and become brittle. Remove the headdress immediately after the ceremony to prevent sweat from corroding the metal parts.
