FAQs
What is 'cheesecloth' fabric?
Cheesecloth is a lightweight, plain-woven cotton fabric. It is known for its softness, breathability, and slightly textured appearance, making it ideal for warm weather clothing.
How does the relaxed fit differ from a regular fit?
A relaxed fit is looser and more generous through the body and sleeves compared to a regular fit, offering greater comfort and ease of movement without being oversized.
Can this top be worn for casual business settings?
This top is primarily designed for casual wear. While it features a polo collar, its lightweight cotton cheesecloth and relaxed fit make it best suited for informal occasions rather than business environments.
What other colors are available for the Selen top?
The Selen top is available in various colors including White, Blue, and Orange, often in different sizes. Please check the product listings for specific color and size availability.
Is this top suitable for very hot and humid weather?
Yes, the 100% cotton cheesecloth fabric is highly breathable and lightweight, making it an excellent choice for hot and humid conditions.
How do I determine my UK dress size for this top?
Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart, typically found on their website or the retailer's product page. Compare your body measurements to the chart to find the corresponding UK dress size.
Will the fabric shrink significantly if I dry it in a machine dryer?
Cotton fabrics, including cheesecloth, can shrink in a machine dryer, especially on high heat. It is recommended to use a low heat setting or air dry to minimize potential shrinkage.
Troubleshooting
Garment appears smaller than expected after washing.
Ensure you followed the washing instructions carefully, particularly regarding temperature and tumble drying. Air drying is recommended to minimize shrinkage. If significant shrinkage occurred, consider if the initial fit was intended to be looser.
Fabric feels rough or stiff.
The cheesecloth fabric might feel slightly textured initially. Washing according to care instructions, especially with a gentle detergent, should soften the fabric over time. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive heat.
Color seems faded after a few washes.
Always wash dark or bright colors with similar shades and use a mild detergent. Washing inside out can also help preserve the color. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
