How should I wash this dress?

Machine wash in cold or warm water on a gentle cycle with like colours.

Does the cotton shrink?

As with all high-quality cotton, it is best to avoid high-heat drying to minimize potential shrinkage.

  • Simple, timeless design suitable for various casual occasions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This dress arrives ready-to-wear. For care, it is designed to be machine washed at a gentle cycle to preserve the integrity of the cotton gauze texture. To maintain the best results, wash with similar colours. Avoid using high-heat tumble drying, as this can lead to shrinking or fabric degradation. Air-drying on a hanger or a flat surface is recommended to maintain the garment's shape. If the fabric appears slightly wrinkled after washing, a low-heat steam or gentle ironing will restore its smooth, clean look.
