FAQs
What does GOTS certified mean?
GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification means the garment is made from certified organic cotton and produced under strict environmental and social guidelines throughout the entire supply chain, ensuring sustainability and ethical manufacturing.
How should I wash this blouse to protect the organic cotton?
Machine wash at 40°C (or 30°C to be kinder to the planet) with similar colours. Avoid bleach and tumble drying on high heat. Line drying is best.
Is this blouse suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, it is made from 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton, which is naturally soft, breathable, and free from harsh chemicals, making it ideal for sensitive skin.
What material are the buttons made of?
The buttons are made from natural coconut shell.
Where is this blouse manufactured?
This blouse is manufactured in India, following Kite's commitment to organic and socially responsible production standards.
How does the sizing run for this blouse?
The sizing is generally consistent with standard UK baby and children's sizes. It is recommended to check the size guide and measure your child for the best fit, especially considering the '6-9 months' size specified.
Can I tumble dry this blouse?
While possible on a low heat setting, it is recommended to line dry the garment to preserve its quality, prevent shrinkage, and be more environmentally friendly.
Troubleshooting
Stains on the fabric
For fresh stains, gently dab with a mild soap and cool water. For tougher stains, use a stain remover suitable for organic cotton and test on an inconspicuous area first. Always follow with a normal wash cycle.
Shrinkage after washing
Ensure you are washing at the recommended temperature (30°C or 40°C) and avoid high heat drying. If shrinkage has occurred, try gently stretching the fabric while damp.
Buttons becoming loose
If a button becomes loose, carefully sew it back on using a needle and thread matching the button colour. Ensure the thread is secured tightly.
Fading of the print
To minimize fading, wash the garment inside out and use a detergent suitable for coloured fabrics. Avoid direct sunlight when drying.
