Dress Care Guide
Every WONÁ Concept gown is created with meticulous attention to detail, combining delicate fabrics, intricate craftsmanship, and carefully constructed silhouettes. Proper care is essential to preserve the beauty, structure, and quality of your gown.
Always Follow the Care Label
Each WONÁ Concept gown comes with a care label containing instructions specific to the fabrics, construction, and decorative elements used in that particular design. Always follow these instructions first, as care requirements may vary from gown to gown.
Professional Cleaning
We recommend entrusting your gown only to a professional cleaner experienced in bridal and couture garments. Avoid washing, dry cleaning, steaming, ironing, or treating stains at home unless specifically permitted by the care label.
Gowns featuring delicate lace, embroidery, beading, appliqués, feathers, corsetry, or other handcrafted details require particularly careful handling.
Stain Removal
If your gown becomes stained, avoid rubbing the affected area or applying household stain removers, bleach, alcohol, or other cleaning products. Gently blot any excess moisture with a clean, light-colored cloth and consult a professional cleaner as soon as possible.
Steaming & Ironing
Always check the care label before steaming or ironing your gown. Fabrics and embellishments can react differently to heat and moisture, and excessive temperatures may permanently damage delicate materials, decorative elements, or the structure of the gown.
Whenever possible, we recommend having your gown professionally steamed and prepared before the wedding.
Storage Before the Wedding
Keep your gown in a clean, dry, cool place away from direct sunlight, humidity, heat, and strong odors. Store it in a breathable garment bag with enough space to prevent the fabric, train, and embellishments from being crushed or distorted.
Avoid prolonged storage in plastic packaging, as it may trap moisture.
For heavily embellished, voluminous, or structured gowns, consult your authorized WONÁ Concept retailer for advice on the most appropriate way to store your particular design.
Handling Your Gown
Always make sure your hands are clean and dry before handling the gown. Take extra care around delicate lace, tulle, embroidery, crystals, beading, feathers, and other decorative elements.
We recommend applying makeup, perfume, hairspray, body lotion, and other beauty products before putting on your gown and allowing them to dry completely to minimize the risk of staining or damaging the fabric.
Travelling With Your Gown
When travelling, keep your gown protected in a garment bag. If you are flying, we recommend carrying your gown with you whenever possible rather than placing it in checked luggage. Contact your airline in advance to confirm its cabin baggage and garment policies.
Once you arrive at your destination, carefully remove the gown from its travel packaging and allow it to hang naturally. If steaming is required, always follow the instructions on the care label or have the gown professionally prepared.
After the Wedding
We recommend having your gown professionally cleaned as soon as reasonably possible after the wedding, even if there are no immediately visible stains. Certain marks and residues may become more difficult to remove over time.
For long-term preservation, store your professionally cleaned gown in appropriate archival or breathable packaging, protected from direct sunlight, moisture, and significant temperature changes.
Important
Every WONÁ Concept gown is unique, and its care requirements depend on its fabrics, construction, and embellishments. The care label attached to your gown should always be considered the primary source of care instructions.
If you are unsure how to clean, steam, iron, store, or otherwise care for your gown, please contact your authorized WONÁ Concept retailer before attempting any treatment.
