FAQs
Is this shirt machine washable?
While some silk items are machine washable, we recommend hand washing to maximize the lifespan of the silk crepe.
How does the oversized fit run?
This shirt features a generous, loose cut. If you prefer a more tailored appearance, you may want to size down, though the XL is designed for comfort.
Can I tumble dry the shirt?
No, tumble drying is not recommended as the heat and agitation can damage the delicate silk fibers.
Is the fabric see-through?
The high-quality silk crepe is chosen for its opacity, providing excellent coverage for professional settings.
Does it require ironing after every wash?
The wrinkle-resistant finish helps, but a light steam or iron is often helpful to restore the shirt's crisp professional look.
Troubleshooting
Stubborn wrinkles after storage
Lightly mist the fabric with water and use a low-heat iron or a handheld steamer to smooth out fibers.
Fabric appears dull
Ensure you are using a dedicated silk detergent; standard laundry soaps can strip the natural luster from the silk.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your silk garment maintains its integrity, always follow care instructions specifically for silk crepe. It is highly recommended to hand wash in cool water using a mild, silk-friendly detergent to preserve the natural protein fibers. Avoid harsh agitation and direct sunlight when drying, as these can weaken the silk and alter the beige pigment. When ironing, use a low heat setting and iron while the fabric is slightly damp to eliminate any lingering creases effectively. The shirt is designed as an oversized fit in size XL; if you are looking for a more fitted silhouette, consider pairing it with structured bottoms to anchor the look.
