Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
This product is a garment and requires no technical setup. Its compatibility is with formal wardrobes and event types. For care, due to the delicate tailoring and fabric composition (primarily polyester), it is recommended to follow the specific care instructions on the garment's label. Typically, this would involve dry cleaning to maintain the fabric's structure and the integrity of the cape detail. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying to prevent damage to the material and its shape. Ironing should be done on a low setting, ideally with a pressing cloth, to protect the fabric.
