Setup, Compatibility & Care
This chemise requires no complicated setup; simply wear it as desired. Compatibility primarily revolves around choosing the correct size for a comfortable fit.
Sizing
- The Sorella Maxi Chemise is designed to align with standard UK women's dress sizes. This specific variant is Size 16.
- For optimal comfort and fit, refer to the Ann Summers official sizing chart if you are unsure of your size or between sizes. A well-fitting chemise will drape beautifully without feeling too restrictive or excessively loose.
Care Instructions
Proper care is crucial to maintain the luxurious feel and appearance of your satin chemise. Follow these guidelines for longevity:
- Washing: Hand wash is recommended for best results. If machine washing, use a delicate cycle with cold water (`30°C / 85°F` max) and a mild detergent. Place the chemise in a mesh laundry bag to protect the lace and fabric.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Gently roll the chemise in a clean towel to absorb excess water, then hang it to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on the lowest heat setting (`silk` or `delicate`) inside out, or use a steamer to remove wrinkles. Avoid high heat, which can damage satin.
- Storage: Store the chemise on a padded hanger or folded neatly to prevent creasing and snags. Avoid storing with items that have zippers or embellishments that could catch on the delicate fabric.
- Avoid Bleach: Never use bleach or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the satin and lace.
