Sequin dresses (or MGB – manik glitter beads) are total showstoppers. They instantly make you look glamorous and classy. But here’s the catch: they’re also super delicate and can easily get damaged if not treated with care. Don’t worry, if you follow these simple tips, your sequin outfits will stay stunning and ready to shine every time you wear them!
Washing sequins requires extra love and patience.
Avoid the washing machine, the spin cycle can ruin or loosen the sequins.
Use a mild detergent made for delicate fabrics.
Got a small stain? Do spot cleaning instead of soaking the whole dress.
Drying is just as important as washing.
Never twist or wring your sequin dress.
Lay it flat on a dry towel and gently press to absorb the water.
Air dry in a shaded area, keep it away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
Storing sequin dresses the wrong way can damage them too!
Use padded hangers to keep the shape nice and neat. For heavier fabrics, lay them flat instead.
Always store them in a garment bag to avoid friction with other clothes.
Keep them away from humid spaces, especially if the sequins are metallic.
When you’re rocking your sequin dress, pay attention to the little details:
Avoid accessories that can snag the sequins.
Never spray perfume or hairspray directly onto the fabric.
Be mindful when sitting on rough surfaces to prevent sequins from popping off.
Loose sequins? Don’t panic, it happens!
Keep spare sequins from the designer or tailor.
Use a fine needle and strong thread to sew them back.
For bigger damage, leave it to a professional tailor.
Taking care of a sequin dress might sound tricky, but it’s totally worth it. With the right care, your dress will stay glamorous, last longer, and always be ready to steal the spotlight at your next event.
So, don’t hesitate to shine bright with your favorite sequin outfit. Treat it right, and it’ll keep you looking fabulous every single time!
