The garment is designed as a regular fit, providing a standard silhouette. Refer to the UK sizing guide for your specific measurements.
Can I wear this in a professional office setting?

What is the approximate length of the top?
The top has an approximate length of 66cm, which is designed to sit comfortably at the hip.
How should I store this garment?
It is best stored on a hanger to preserve the architectural shoulder design and prevent deep creases in the cotton fabric.
Does the waist tie come off?

Troubleshooting
Embroidery threads catching
Ensure the garment is washed inside a protective laundry mesh bag to prevent snagging on other items.
Loss of structure in shoulders
Avoid wire hangers that stretch the fabric; use wide, padded, or contoured hangers to support the shoulder structure.
Creasing after washing
Remove promptly from the wash and hang on a sturdy hanger while damp to allow wrinkles to release naturally.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because of the intricate embroidery, this garment requires gentle handling. To maintain the crispness of the cap sleeves and the delicate cutwork, it is recommended to wash the item on a delicate cycle or hand wash in cool water. Avoid aggressive tumble drying to prevent the cotton from shrinking or the embroidery from snagging. For the best silhouette, the garment should be hung to dry naturally. When ironing, use a low to medium heat setting, ideally placing a pressing cloth between the iron and the embroidered surface to protect the texture.
