To wear this Elphia dress, simply zip it up and adjust it to fit your body. Because there's a small tear in the seam below the zip, be a bit careful when zipping and unzipping to avoid making the tear bigger. For maintenance, you can machine - wash it on a gentle cycle with cold water. Use a mild detergent. After washing, lay it flat to dry to keep its shape. You can iron it on a low - heat setting if needed. Enjoy this special dress and make it a part of your unique style!
