Care & Maintenance
Washing: Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, or hand wash to preserve the delicate lace and ruffles. Use mild detergent specifically formulated for synthetic fabrics.
Drying: Air dry flat or hang-dry to maintain shape. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the pink gingham and teddy bear print.
