FAQs

What material is the Akep Sottoveste made from?

The Akep Sottoveste in Georgette is crafted from georgette fabric, predominantly viscose. Some variants may feature satin.

Is this slip suitable for wearing on its own?

Yes, the slip silhouette and elegant design make it suitable for wearing as a standalone piece, particularly for evening wear or as a delicate top.

How should I wash this item?

It is best to hand wash or use a delicate cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid tumble drying; lay flat or hang to air dry.

Can I wear this slip under sheer clothing?

Absolutely. Its lightweight and smooth texture makes it an ideal layering piece under sheer fabrics for added coverage and comfort.

What occasions is this slip appropriate for?

This slip is highly versatile and can be worn for casual daywear, professional settings when layered, or dressed up for evening events.

Does the black color fade over time?

To maintain the color, wash in cold water and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Using a mild detergent also helps preserve the color.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and a cold water wash. Avoid harsh chemicals or fabric softeners that can alter the georgette's texture. Air dry completely.

Minor snags or pulls in the fabric.

Gently try to pull the snagged thread back through to the reverse side using a fine needle. If the snag is significant, it may be difficult to repair without visible alteration. Handle with care to prevent future snags.

Garment loses its drape.

Ensure the garment is not overcrowded in the washing machine and is dried properly. Re-steaming the garment can help restore its natural flow and drape.
