While some crepe fabrics can be hand-washed, it is highly recommended to check the specific care label sewn into your garment. When in doubt, dry cleaning is the safest method to preserve the texture.
The Signature Crepe fabric is primarily chosen for its drape and structure rather than elasticity. They do not offer significant stretch, so it is important to select your correct size.
The tapered leg works perfectly with pointed-toe pumps, loafers, or ankle boots, as the silhouette accentuates the shoe without bunching at the hem.
Compare your waist and hip measurements against the Debenhams size chart. If you are between sizes, consider the structure of the waistline and choose the size that best accommodates your hips.
If ironing is necessary, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric, or use a pressing cloth to avoid direct heat that could cause the crepe to become shiny.
Use a garment steamer at a low setting or hang the trousers in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes to let gravity relax the fabric.
Avoid contact with rough surfaces, sharp jewelry, or bags with exposed zippers that could pull the delicate threads of the crepe.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zip track. If it sticks, rub a small amount of beeswax or a graphite pencil along the teeth to lubricate them.
To ensure your trousers maintain their shape and fit, follow the care label instructions strictly. Generally, crepe items benefit from professional dry cleaning to prevent shrinkage or snagging, though some may be hand-washed in cool water with mild detergent if indicated. When storing, hang the trousers by the hem or use a trouser-specific hanger to preserve the pressed crease. These trousers are designed to be true-to-size for a standard UK 18 fit; ensure you verify your measurements against the brand's size guide before purchase, as the lack of significant stretch in the fabric means the garment will not yield much during wear.
