Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Bea Cardigan remains in pristine condition, keep it stored on a wide-shouldered hanger to prevent the fabric from stretching or losing its structured silhouette. Given the inclusion of cashmere, avoid exposure to direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent color fading. For cleaning, strictly adhere to dry cleaning instructions; machine washing or tumble drying will compromise the structural integrity and the natural fibers of the garment. If you notice minor pilling due to the cashmere content, use a dedicated fabric shaver gently to restore the surface finish.
