Troubleshooting
Duvet cover appears wrinkled after washing.
Tumble dry on a low setting and remove the duvet cover promptly while slightly damp. Smooth it out or iron lightly on the polycotton reverse side to remove creases.
Velvet pile looks flattened or less plush.
Avoid sitting or placing heavy objects on the velvet side for extended periods. After washing, ensure proper drying and gently brush the pile with a soft brush (like a clothes brush) to restore its texture.
Color seems to be fading or dull.
Always wash with similar colors in cold or cool water using a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleaching agents, and excessive exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause colors to fade over time.
Pillowcases do not fit standard pillows.
