To wear this dress, simply button it up from the top. It's great for casual outings on sunny days or relaxing in the countryside. When it comes to washing, since it's made of 100% cotton, you can machine - wash it on a gentle cycle with cold water. Use a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach as it might damage the floral embroidery. After washing, lay it flat to dry to keep its shape. Don't iron directly on the embroidery; instead, iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Store it in a cool, dry place to keep it in good condition.
