To wear these Genevieve crochet mini shorts, simply pull them on and adjust the tie at the front to your comfort. They're great for casual outings or paired with nicer tops for a semi - formal look. When it comes to maintenance, it's best to hand - wash them in cold water to preserve the crochet fabric. Avoid using harsh detergents as they can damage the linen and cotton blend. After washing, lay them flat to dry to prevent any stretching. If they get wrinkled, you can use a low - heat iron on the reverse side of the fabric. And always store them in a cool, dry place to keep them in good condition.
