Wash and care instruction

·         Handwash lightly with mild detergent. Do not soak any cotton dress & do not wash with another garment. Dry inside out in shade. Dry clean is ideal but handwash works.

·         Taking care of your clothes will keep them looking good and fresh for longer.

·         The following instructions will help you prolong the life of your clothes.

·         Water is precious. Wash garments only when necessary. Airing it after every use will keep fresh for use, a couple of times.

·         Wash our garments by hand. Do not put them in a washing machine or dryer.

·         Moderate shrinkage may be expected while washing your clothes.

·         One must be careful when applying fragrances to handmade clothes as the ingredients may cause your clothes to remove print or stain. It’s best to spray lightly from a moderate distance.

Sorting

Sort clothes colour-wise. Wash only similar coloured garments together.

Soaking

Put a small quantity of mild detergent in a half-filled bucket of cold water. Soak the garment in the soapy solution for 5-10 minutes. Do not soak for a longer duration. Pre-soaked garments must be washed immediately.

Rinsing

The soiled areas can be rubbed gently by hand. Do not use a solid bar of soap or a brush. Rinse the garment a few times in a cold water to remove the detergent completely.

Starching

A final dip in a diluted solution of liquid starch will render a crisp finish to the garment. Do not wring too much.

Drying

Drying your clothes under the sun light causes colour-fading. Therefore, hang them out to dry in the evenings or in the shade. Garments should be hung straight to dry on rust-proof hangers (either plastic or wooden).

Ironing

Do not iron directly on prints, embroidery, gota work etc. Such clothes should be turned inside out and ironed lightly.

Storage

Store garments in a cool, dry place protected from direct sunlight. Keep white and light coloured garments away from the darker coloured ones. Use aromatic sachets to dispel cupboard odours.

Silk and silk blends

Silk and silk blend fabrics must be dry cleaned only. Store carefully in cloth covers with a few scented sachets.
