Troubleshooting

Blouse appears wrinkled after washing.

Iron the blouse on a low heat setting while slightly damp, or use a pressing cloth. For best results, dry flat and avoid tumble drying.

Embroidery detail looks faded or damaged.

Ensure you are using a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and high heat when drying or ironing. If ironing directly, use a pressing cloth.
