AMALTHEA FLORAL DRESS*Please Note: The Amalthea Dress is designed with small plastic threads at the hem to hold the ruffles shape. These must extend past the seamif cut too short, they will recoil inside and the ruffle will lose its structure. This is intentional and not a defect. If a customer feels it is necessary, the threads may be trimmed slightly (leaving at least " past the seam), but Lunella cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by altering the garment*
