FAQs
Is the fabric see-through?
As this cover-up is white and made of lightweight cotton, it has a semi-sheer quality that is standard for such garments; it is intended to be worn over swimwear or a base layer.
Does this item shrink in the wash?
Being 100% cotton, it may undergo minor natural shrinkage. Always wash in cold water and avoid high-heat tumble drying to minimize this.
Can I wear this in the evening?
Absolutely. The elegant clasp detail and tailored draping make it sophisticated enough for casual evening dinners.
What does the 'relaxed fit' mean for sizing?
The relaxed fit is designed to be loose and flowy. If you prefer a more tailored, fitted look, you might consider sizing down, but for the intended drape, your standard size is recommended.
How do I secure the clasp?
The clasp is a decorative hook-style closure designed for ease of use. Simply align the two sides and hook them together until you feel the tension hold.
Troubleshooting
The clasp hardware feels loose.
Check the connection point to ensure it hasn't caught on an internal thread; if necessary, gently tighten the attachment with a needle and thread.
Fabric looks wrinkled.
A quick steam or a low-heat iron setting on the cotton side will restore the crisp, clean appearance of the fabric.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the integrity of the cotton fabric and the clasp hardware, follow these guidelines:
- Washing: Use a gentle cycle in your machine with cold water to prevent shrinking.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to maintain the shape of the relaxed fit and prevent heat damage to the fibers.
- Storage: Hang the garment on a padded hanger to ensure the fabric drape remains smooth and free of deep set-in creases.
- Clasp Care: Ensure the clasp is fastened before laundering or wash inside a mesh laundry bag to prevent snagging on other items.
