Washing Instructions

Caring our Korean crepe pieces involves delicate handling to preserve the fabric, colors, and intricate details. Here are some care instructions:

1. Hand Washing:

  • Fill a basin or tub with cold water.
  • Add a small amount of mild detergent suitable for delicate fabrics.
  • Gently submerge the kaftan pieces in the water.
  • Swirl the water around to clean the fabric, avoiding any harsh rubbing.
  • Allow the kaftan to soak for 5-10 minutes.

2. Rinse:

  • Drain the soapy water and refill the basin with clean, cold water.
  • Gently rinse the kaftan until all soap is removed.

3. Drying:

  • Never wring or twist the fabric, as it can damage delicate embellishments.
  • Lay the kaftan flat on a clean, dry towel.
  • Roll the towel with the kaftan inside to remove excess water.
  • Unroll and reshape the kaftan, laying it flat on a drying rack or a clean, dry towel.
  • Avoid direct sunlight to prevent color fading.

4. Storage:

  • Store your two-piece kaftan in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Use padded hangers or fold the kaftan carefully to avoid creasing.
  • Consider placing tissue paper between folds to prevent any embroidery or beadwork from snagging.

5. Steaming:

  • If wrinkles appear, avoid using a traditional iron.
  • Instead, use a handheld fabric steamer on the lowest setting to gently remove wrinkles.

6. Spot Cleaning:

  • Address stains promptly using a mild, gentle stain remover.
  • Test any stain remover on a small, inconspicuous area first.

7. Professional Cleaning:

  • For heavily soiled kaftans or those with intricate detailing, consider professional dry cleaning.
  • Choose a reputable cleaner experienced in handling delicate fabrics.

General Tips:

  • Avoid contact with rough surfaces and sharp objects to prevent snags or tears.
  • Keep perfumes, cosmetics, and other potential staining agents away from the kaftan.
  • Handle the kaftan with clean, dry hands to prevent oil and dirt transfer.

By following these care instructions, you'll help maintain the beauty and longevity of your two-piece Moroccan kaftan.
