FAQs

What type of fabric is this blouse made from?

The blouse is made from 100% linen, known for its breathability and natural texture.

How should I determine my size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart. Given the slim fit, consider your body measurements and compare them to the provided size guide. If you are between sizes or prefer a looser fit, you may want to size up.

Can this blouse be machine washed?

Yes, it is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. However, hand washing is often preferred for delicate fabrics like linen to ensure longevity.

How do I minimize wrinkling in linen?

Linen naturally wrinkles. To minimize wrinkles, remove the blouse from the dryer promptly and iron while damp. Hanging it on a hanger can also help reduce creases.

What kind of buttons does the blouse have?

The blouse features tone-on-tone corozo buttons, which are made from a natural material and add an artisanal touch.

Is the fit true to size?

The blouse is described as having a 'fitted' and 'slim' fit. It is designed to be close to the body. Please consult the size chart and consider your personal preference for fit.

Troubleshooting

Garment appears wrinkled after washing.

Iron the blouse while it is still slightly damp or use a steam iron on a medium heat setting. Proper ironing is key for linen.

Fabric feels stiff after drying.

Ensure you are using a gentle detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can sometimes affect linen's natural texture. Laying flat to dry can help maintain softness.

Color seems to fade.

Wash in cold water and turn the garment inside out. Use a detergent specifically designed for colors and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during drying.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: It is recommended to hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid harsh detergents.
  • Drying: For best results, lay flat to dry or hang on a padded hanger. Avoid tumble drying to prevent shrinkage and damage to the fabric.
  • Ironing: Iron on a medium heat setting while the garment is still slightly damp, or use a steam iron to remove wrinkles effectively. Linen is prone to creasing, so regular ironing is advised.
  • Storage: Store folded or on a hanger in a cool, dry place to maintain its shape and prevent excessive wrinkling.
