Setup, Compatibility & Care
Care Instructions:
Washing: Due to the delicate organdie fabric, hand washing in cool water is recommended. Alternatively, a gentle machine wash on a delicate cycle may be possible, but always check the garment's care label.
Drying: Avoid tumble drying. Lay the blouse flat on a clean towel or hang it on a padded hanger to air dry, away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration.

Storage: Store in a breathable garment bag to protect from dust and snagging. Avoid overcrowding your wardrobe to prevent crushing the fabric.

Pairs well with tailored trousers, skirts, and smart denim.
Effective when layered under blazers, cardigans, or structured jackets.
Consider the formality of the occasion when styling the pussybow (tied vs. untied).
