To wear this dress, first put it over your head and adjust the halter ties around your neck for a comfortable fit. Then, tie the interior tie to secure it around your waist. Wrap the front closure around your body and make sure it's fastened properly. When it comes to care, since it's 100% cotton, you can machine - wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using harsh detergents as they may damage the delicate eyelet pattern. Hang it to dry to prevent shrinking. Store it in a cool, dry place when not in use. And always check the size chart before purchasing to ensure the best fit.
