FAQs

What material is this top made of?

This garment is crafted from 100% polyester, known for its durability and wrinkle resistance.

Is the top suitable for machine washing?

Yes, it is generally safe for machine washing on a gentle cycle, but always refer to the specific care label attached to the garment.

Does the shirred neckline allow for off-shoulder wear?

The design features a shirred neckline intended for a classic fit, but the flexibility of the shirring can often accommodate off-shoulder styling depending on your preference.

How should I store this top?

It is best to hang the top on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and the elasticity of the shirred sections.

Is this top true to size?

The top is designed to fit a standard UK size 22. The shirred sections provide some flexibility, but we recommend checking against your usual size measurements.

Troubleshooting

Shirring feels tight or restrictive

Ensure the garment is correctly positioned on the shoulders to allow the waist shirring to sit at the natural waistline for proper tension distribution.

Fabric appears wrinkled after storage

Use a handheld steamer on a low setting; avoid direct contact with high-heat irons which can damage synthetic polyester fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Star by Julien Macdonald top in excellent condition, follow standard garment care for polyester blends. Always check the internal wash label for specific temperature guidance. Typically, it is best to machine wash on a delicate cycle with like colors to prevent the print from fading. Avoid using bleach, which can damage the fibers and the print quality. For drying, air drying on a hanger is recommended to maintain the integrity of the shirred elastic areas, as high-heat tumble drying may cause the elastic to lose its tension over time. If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and consider using a pressing cloth to protect the fabric.
