Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket remains in pristine condition, adhere to the following guidelines:
- Storage: Always hang the jacket on a structured, padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and the shawl collar.
- Cleaning: This garment is designed for professional dry cleaning only. Do not attempt to machine wash, as the interior lining and structural padding can be damaged.
- Wrinkle Management: Use a garment steamer at a low setting if necessary, keeping the steamer at a distance from the satin trim to avoid heat damage.
- Compatibility: This piece pairs best with high-waisted trousers, pencil skirts, or slim-fit dark denim for a modern 'high-low' style. Avoid heavy jewelry that could snag the delicate crepe fabric or the satin collar trim.
