Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your cotton smock dress in the best condition, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors using cold water to prevent shrinking.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible to preserve the cotton fibers and the integrity of the smocked elastic.
- Ironing: Use a low-heat setting if necessary; avoid direct contact with the smocked area to prevent heat damage to the elasticity.
- Storage: Hang the dress or store it folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid keeping it in direct sunlight for long periods to prevent color fading of the striped pattern.
