FAQs

What material is the t-shirt made of?

The t-shirt is primarily made of 95% Viscose and 5% Elastane, offering a soft and slightly stretchy feel.

How do I wash this t-shirt?

You can machine wash it at 30°C. Avoid bleach and do not tumble dry. Iron on a low temperature setting.

What is the Lurex detailing?

Lurex is a type of metallic yarn that is woven into the fabric to create a subtle shimmer or sparkle effect, particularly noticeable on the V-neck and hem of this t-shirt.

Is this t-shirt suitable for sensitive skin?

The high percentage of natural viscose generally makes it a comfortable option, but individual sensitivities can vary. If you have particularly sensitive skin, always test a small area first.

What does 'Permanent Press' mean in the care instructions?

Permanent Press refers to a type of cycle on washing machines and dryers designed to minimize wrinkles and help garments retain their shape. For this t-shirt, it indicates it can withstand such cycles during washing.

Can I tumble dry this t-shirt?

No, the care instructions explicitly state 'Do Not Tumble Dry'. Tumble drying can damage the fabric and cause shrinkage.

What is the fit of this t-shirt?

The t-shirt has a 'Regular' fit with a slightly tailored waist, designed to provide a flattering silhouette without being overly tight.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are washing at 30°C and using a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals. Check that you are not overloading the washing machine.

Lurex detailing appears dull.

Avoid high heat ironing directly on the Lurex. Ensure you are ironing at a low temperature and on the reverse side if possible. Do not use bleach.

Garment has lost its shape.

This can occur from improper drying. Ensure the garment is never tumble dried and is laid flat or hung to air dry away from direct heat.
