Care and Longevity Guidelines
- Hand wash in cold water with a mild, pH-neutral detergent to preserve silk fibers and color.
- Lay the bra flat to dry, avoiding direct sunlight that can weaken delicate yarns over time.
- Store flat or on a padded hanger to maintain shape and prevent creasing around the cups.
- Rotate with other intimates to reduce friction and extend the life of elastic and stitching.
- Avoid machine washing, bleaching, or tumble drying to protect sustainable details and hand-finishes.
