Proper care extends the life and beauty of your blouses. Follow these guidelines to keep them looking new.
🌿
Cotton Blouses
Machine wash cold on gentle cycle or hand wash. Use mild detergent. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low or air dry in shade. Iron on medium heat while slightly damp.
✨
Silk Blouses
Dry clean recommended. If hand washing: use cold water with silk-specific detergent. Do not wring — gently squeeze. Dry flat in shade. Iron on lowest setting with pressing cloth.
🌙
Velvet Blouses
Dry clean only. If lightly soiled, use a damp cloth to blot (never rub). Store hanging to prevent crushing. Steam gently to revive velvet pile.
🎭
Embroidered Blouses
Hand wash gently in cold water. Do not soak for more than 5 minutes. Rinse without wringing. Dry flat to prevent embroidery distortion. Iron from the wrong side with pressing cloth.
🪡
Net & Sheer Blouses
Hand wash only in cold water with mild detergent. Never machine wash — net tears easily. Lay flat to dry. Iron on very low heat or use a steamer from distance.
🖌️
Printed Blouses
Turn inside out before washing to protect prints. Machine wash cold on gentle or hand wash. Do not soak. Air dry in shade to prevent fading. Iron from wrong side.

💡 Pro tip: Store your blouses folded in a muslin or cotton bag — never in plastic. For silk and velvet, add a sachet of lavender to keep insects away.
