Setup, Compatibility & Care

This is a finished garment, so no 'setup' is required beyond wearing it. It is designed for direct wear.

Care Instructions:

  • Dry Clean Only: To preserve the delicate embroidery and organdie fabric, professional dry cleaning is strongly recommended.
  • Handle with Care: Avoid snagging the organdie overlay or the embroidered details on sharp objects.
  • Storage: Store in a breathable garment bag to protect from dust and light. Avoid folding in a way that crushes the embellishments.
  • Ironing: If ironing is necessary, use a very low heat setting and iron on the reverse side, preferably with a pressing cloth over the embroidered areas. It is best to consult a professional cleaner regarding pressing.
