To wear this dress, simply put it on and adjust the self - tie belt to your desired tightness. You can wear it for a casual day out or dress it up for a more formal event by adding heels and a clutch. When it comes to cleaning, it's best to follow the care instructions on the label. Usually, a gentle machine wash in cold water is a good option. Avoid using harsh detergents that could damage the embroidery. Hang it to dry to maintain its shape. And if it gets wrinkled, you can use a low - heat iron to smooth it out.
