Top feels too tight or loose

Care Instructions:

  • Material: 100% Polyester.
  • Washing: Due to the delicate pleated nature and fabric, hand washing in cool water is recommended to maintain the pleats and fabric integrity. Alternatively, a gentle machine wash on a low temperature cycle may be suitable, but always check the garment's care label.
  • Drying: Avoid tumble drying. Lay the garment flat to air dry, away from direct sunlight, to prevent shrinkage or damage to the pleats.
  • Ironing: Iron on a very low heat setting, preferably inside out, and consider using a pressing cloth to protect the pleats. Steaming may be a safer option for refreshing the fabric.
