FAQs
What is the primary material of this shirt?
The shirt is made from a blend of 70% Cotton and 30% Silk.
How do I determine my UK size?
Refer to the sizing information provided by WHISTLES, typically found in a size chart. The description mentions Joanna wears a UK size 8/S, indicating sizing is available from UK 8 upwards.
Can this shirt be machine washed?
No, this shirt is strictly handwash only. Machine washing can damage the delicate silk and cotton fibers.
What does 'trapeze silhouette' mean?
A trapeze silhouette is fitted at the shoulders and gently flares out towards the hem, creating an A-line shape that is airy and forgiving.
What is the length of the shirt?
The shirt has a regular length of approximately 60cm.
What kind of collar does this shirt have?
It features a grandad collar, which is a collarless style with a band.
Is this shirt suitable for sensitive skin?
The blend of natural cotton and silk is generally soft and breathable, making it a good option for many skin types. However, individual sensitivities may vary.
Troubleshooting
Shirt appears wrinkled after washing.
Ensure you are using a cool iron on the reverse side, or consider using a steamer. Laying flat to dry can also minimize wrinkles.
Fabric feels stiff after handwashing.
This might be due to mineral content in the water or detergent. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can damage silk fibers.
Color seems to fade.
Always handwash separately in cool water for the first few washes to prevent color bleeding. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
