Care and Cleaning Instructions for This Dress:

This vibrant ethnic dress—featuring delicate net, embroidery, velvet, and mixed embellishments—requires gentle and mindful care to preserve its colors, texture, and shape.

🧼
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS:

✅
Preferred Method:

• Professional Dry Cleaning
  • Due to the combination of fabrics (net, velvet, embroidered borders, sequins), it’s safest to have it dry cleaned.
  • This avoids color bleeding, fabric damage, or shrinking.

⚠️
Avoid:

• Machine Washing: The delicate net can tear, and embroidery may come loose.
• Soaking or Hand-Washing: Can lead to discoloration and fabric warping, especially with velvet and metallic trim.
• Harsh Detergents or Bleach: These may damage the color and fabric finishes.

🧽
Spot Cleaning (For Emergencies Only):

• Use a clean white cloth, dip in cold water with mild baby shampoo, and dab very gently.
• Test on an inconspicuous area first to ensure colorfastness.
• Avoid scrubbing, especially near embellishments or velvet borders.

🪡
STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS:

👚
Folding:

• Fold neatly with acid-free tissue paper between folds to prevent creasing and preserve embroidery and sequins.

🛍️
Garment Bag:

• Store in a breathable cotton or muslin garment bag, never plastic, to prevent mildew and let the fabric breathe.

🧺
Keep Away From:

• Direct sunlight – fades vibrant colors like red and yellow.
• Moisture and humidity – causes mold, velvet damage, and embellishment tarnish.

🔥

Recommended: Steaming

• Use a handheld garment steamer on low to gently remove wrinkles, especially from the yellow net and dupatta.
• Keep the steamer 6–8 inches away to avoid damage to delicate areas.

⚠️
Avoid Ironing on:

• Velvet and net fabric – direct heat can burn or crush the texture.
• If ironing is essential, place a cotton cloth over the area and use the lowest heat setting.

BONUS TIP:

After wearing, air the dress out for a few hours in a shaded area before storage to remove any moisture or odor.
