How should I store this jacket?

It is best to store the jacket on a padded hanger to maintain its structure, particularly the shoulders. Avoid overcrowding your wardrobe.

Troubleshooting

Jacket loses its shape after wearing

Ensure the jacket is properly stored on a hanger. The structured nature of the cotton sateen helps it hold shape; if creases persist, professional dry cleaning and pressing may be required.

Tie-waist drawstring is difficult to adjust

Gently pull both ends of the drawstring evenly. If it feels snagged, check for any internal twists or obstructions within the casing. Avoid forcing it.

Gold-tone buttons appear dull or tarnished

Gently polish the buttons with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn tarnish, a specialized metal polish can be used sparingly, ensuring it does not contact the fabric.

Lace trim becomes snagged or frayed

Carefully trim any loose threads with sharp fabric scissors. For more significant damage, repair by a professional tailor may be necessary. Handle with care during wear and cleaning.
