Are the metallic buttons safe for washing?

The metallic hardware buttons are designed to be durable, but it's advisable to wash the garment on a gentle cycle and avoid high heat during drying and ironing to maintain their finish.

What occasions is this shirt suitable for?

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears creased after washing.

Gently iron the shirt on a low heat setting, preferably inside out. Ensure the fabric is slightly damp before ironing for best results. Avoid over-drying.

Metallic buttons show signs of tarnishing.

Gently clean the buttons with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or polishes that could damage the finish. Ensure the shirt is fully dry before storing.
