FAQs

What material is the waistcoat made of?

It is crafted from soft baby cord fabric, providing a textured, durable, and comfortable feel.

How long is this waistcoat?

The garment is approximately 59cm (23.2 inches) in length.

Can I put this in the tumble dryer?

No, it is recommended to air dry the waistcoat flat to preserve the frilled hem and the integrity of the corduroy fabric.

Does it have pockets?

Yes, it features handy front pockets detailed with contrast piping.

Is the fit true to size?

The waistcoat is designed with seam detailing for a tailored fit; it is recommended to check the specific size measurements for your UK dress size to ensure the desired silhouette.

What is the best way to style the berry color?

Berry pairs exceptionally well with neutrals like cream, grey, and black, or can be complemented by earthy tones like olive or mustard for a seasonal look.

Troubleshooting

Corduroy pile appearing crushed

Use a soft-bristled garment brush or a gentle steam treatment to lift the fibers back to their original position.

Buttons feeling loose

Check the thread tension on the back of the buttons and reinforce with a needle and thread matching the berry color if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Freya Cord Waistcoat maintains its structure and color, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash or use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent inside a laundry mesh bag to protect the frilled hem.
  2. Drying: Do not tumble dry; lay the garment flat on a clean towel to air dry, ensuring the frills are shaped correctly while damp.
  3. Ironing: Use a low-heat setting or a steamer. Avoid direct high-heat contact with the corduroy to prevent the fabric from crushing or losing its plush texture.
  4. Storage: Hang on a shaped coat hanger to maintain the seam structure. Avoid tight packing in closets to prevent the corduroy pile from matting.
