The bolero is made from 100% Polyester chiffon, giving it a soft, sheer, and lightweight feel.

Is this bolero true to size?

Yes, it is described as a 'Womens Regular fit. True to size,' so you can typically select your usual dress size.

How should I wash this bolero?

The bolero is machine washable. For best results, use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and cool water. Air dry by hanging to prevent damage.

Can I wear this bolero in colder weather?

Due to its lightweight and sheer chiffon material, this bolero offers minimal warmth and is best suited for warmer seasons or as an indoor layering piece in air-conditioned environments, rather than for cold weather.

What is the length of the bolero?

This bolero features a cropped length, approximately 46cm, designed to sit elegantly at the waist.

Troubleshooting

Bolero appears wrinkled after storage or washing.

Gently hang the bolero immediately after washing or remove it from storage. For persistent wrinkles, use a garment steamer or iron on the lowest heat setting with a pressing cloth to protect the delicate polyester chiffon.

Fabric snags easily.

Chiffon is a delicate fabric. Handle the bolero with care, particularly around jewelry (rings, bracelets, necklaces) or rough surfaces that could catch the material. Store it folded or on a padded hanger to prevent snags.

The bolero doesn't sit well on my shoulders or arms.

Ensure you have selected the correct size; the product is described as 'True to size'. If the fit feels off, check if the natural drape of chiffon or the short sleeve cut is conflicting with the fit of your underlying garment. Adjusting the underlying garment or opting for a different style of top may help.

Care Instructions

To maintain the quality and appearance of your chiffon bolero, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Machine Washable: The bolero is 100% polyester and can be machine washed. Always check the garment's care label for specific temperature settings and cycle recommendations, typically a cool or delicate wash.
  2. Use Mild Detergent: Opt for a gentle detergent to protect the fabric's integrity and color.
  3. Avoid Bleach: Do not use bleach, as it can damage the delicate chiffon and affect the gold color.
  4. Gentle Cycle: Use a gentle or delicate cycle to prevent snags or damage to the sheer fabric.
  5. Air Dry: For best results and to prevent shrinking or damage, hang the bolero to air dry. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can harm polyester chiffon.
  6. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a very low heat setting. Consider using a pressing cloth to protect the fabric, or use a steamer for wrinkle removal.
