Caring for this garment
Important Care Instructions
This garment is a complete one-off and hand dyed/printed/painted/ re-worked. It will never be made exactly the same again and it needs to be treated with care.
Take care to not over-launder. Choose to spot clean or even just hang out in the breeze to refresh it.
If needed wash by hand in cool water with a very mild detergent. Do not leave to soak for too long. Wring out gently and hang to dry. Can be ironed with medium heat.
Although all dyes and prints have been heat sealed to stay on the fabric excessive washing will cause them to fade over time.
