FAQs
What type of fabric is this shirt made from?
The shirt is made from cotton sateen, known for its smooth finish and slight sheen, offering breathability and comfort.
How should I style the volume sleeves?
The volume sleeves are designed as a statement feature. You can style them as is for a dramatic look, or gently cuff them for a more subdued appearance. They pair well with fitted trousers or skirts to balance the silhouette.
Can I wear this shirt for formal events?
While it has elegant features like the collared neckline and print, the volume sleeves and casual styling suggestions lean it more towards smart-casual or daytime events. For a formal event, pair it with sophisticated tailored trousers or a skirt and elevated accessories.
How do I adjust the fit with the belt?
The belt is designed to be threaded through loops at the waist. Tie it at the front or back to cinch the waist and create a more defined, flattering silhouette.
What is the best way to care for the cotton sateen fabric?
It is best to machine wash at 30°C or opt for dry cleaning. Avoid tumble drying and iron on a low setting on the reverse side to preserve the fabric's quality and print.
