Hi suman, what are you going to be doing with the model, are you making a rendering with it?

It may be better to apply the label as a texture map in a rendering program rather than trying to model a thin paper thing like that in CAD.

If you did want to model it using Flow note that the label does not actually adhere 100% completely to the bottle in this area here:



So probably the first step would be to prepare a second revolve that does have the shape that the label should adhere to, meaning it would not have the inward jump and maybe have a little bulge for the wire.

Something maybe like this as the profile for the revolve:



Then you're going to use that as the target for the revolve not the original bottle itself.

Maybe some projected 2D curves onto that might be easier than Flow.
