FAQs
What is the fit of this T-shirt?
This garment features an oversized fit, meaning it is designed to be roomy and relaxed.
Can I put this shirt in the dryer?
No, high heat from a dryer can damage and shrink silk fibers. Always air dry flat.
Is the material sheer?
While the silk is high-quality, the level of opacity depends on the intensity of the color and lighting; the red color is generally opaque.
How should I choose my size?
Since it is an oversized fit, stick to your normal size if you want the intended relaxed look, or size down if you prefer a more tailored fit.
Can this be worn for formal occasions?
Yes, its clean design and premium fabric make it suitable for smart-casual events when paired with the right trousers or skirt.
Does the silk retain odors?
Silk is naturally resistant to odors, meaning you likely won't need to wash it as frequently as cotton or synthetic shirts.
Troubleshooting
Visible wrinkles appearing on the fabric
Use a garment steamer on the low silk setting or hang the shirt in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes to allow the fibers to relax.
Fabric feels slightly stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a silk-specific detergent and check that no soap residue remains by thoroughly rinsing in cool, clear water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of your Lilysilk T-Shirt, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Hand wash in cool water using a pH-neutral silk detergent or dry clean for best results.
- Drying: Never wring out the shirt; instead, gently press excess water out with a clean towel and lay it flat to dry away from direct sunlight.
- Ironing: Use a low-heat setting or a garment steamer to remove wrinkles, preferably while the fabric is slightly damp.
- Storage: Hang the shirt on a padded hanger to prevent shoulder bumps, or fold it gently to avoid deep creases in the silk fibers.
