To ensure that your beautiful piece looking fresh and vibrant for many seasons to come we recommend following these simple care instructions:
Gentle Cold Wash - immerse your blouse in cold water and gently hand wash it. If a washing machine is used, cold gentle cycle is recommended.
Air Dry in the Shade - after washing, avoid wringing out the pants to preserve the delicate embroidery and lay your blouse flat or hang it to air dry in a shaded area to prevent fading and protect the fabric from the harsh effects of direct sunlight.
Avoid Harsh Detergents - to preserve the integrity of the colors and material, opt for mild, gentle pH-neutral detergents that are suitable for delicate fabrics. -
