Troubleshooting

Bolero appears wrinkled after washing or storage.

Gently steam the bolero or iron on a very low heat setting with a pressing cloth. Hanging it in a steamy bathroom for a short period can also help relax wrinkles.

Fabric feels snagged or pulled.

Chiffon is delicate. Handle with care, avoid contact with sharp objects or rough surfaces. If a small snag occurs, gently try to push the thread back into place with a fine needle; do not pull it.

Fit doesn't seem 'true to size' as described.

While generally true to size, body shapes vary. Refer to the size guide if available, or consider exchanging for a different size if the fit is not as desired. Ensure you've ordered your standard UK dress size.

Bolero feels static or clings to clothing.

This can happen with polyester. Use an anti-static spray on the inside of the bolero or lightly dampen your hands with water and smooth over the fabric before wearing.

Care Instructions

To maintain the quality and appearance of your Ruched Hem Chiffon Bolero, follow these simple care guidelines:

  • Washing: Machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold water to prevent damage to the delicate chiffon fabric. It's advisable to place it in a mesh laundry bag to protect it from snagging.
  • Drying: Air dry by laying flat or hanging on a padded hanger. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent color fading. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage polyester.
  • Ironing: If needed, iron on a very low heat setting, preferably with a pressing cloth or by steaming to remove wrinkles. Avoid direct, high heat which can scorch polyester.
  • Storage: Store on a hanger or folded neatly to prevent creasing.
