Warning: Color of this product may transfer....

My new Tommy Hilfiger shirtdress arrived, and I like it. Good fit, great for early fall, and DH thinks it's cute. I was going to wear it tonight.

Then I noticed this tag: Warning: The color of this product may transfer to other objects. Avoid making contact with light colored surfaces.

Now I'm conflicted about the dress. I'm afraid it's going to rub off on purses, chairs, the car seat, etc.

I guess I should wash it before wearing. But what if that's not enough to stop the color transfer? Then I'd want to return it, but I've never returned washed and worn clothing.

I usually don't buy very dark denim, so this issue is new to me. This is a good brand, and the dress was not cheap (I paid more than the current sale price). I expected it to be "ready to wear".

Any advice?
