To wear this dress, simply slip it on over your head. You can choose to wear the sleeves on your shoulders for a more traditional look or push them off for a trendy off - shoulder style. Remember, this is a final sale item, so make sure you're happy with your purchase before buying. For maintenance, it's best to hand - wash this lightweight fabric in cold water. Use a gentle detergent and lay it flat to dry to keep its shape and the color vivid. Avoid wringing it out too hard to prevent damage to the puff sleeves and the flouncy skirt.
