To wear these Genevieve crochet mini shorts, simply put them on like you would any other shorts. You can adjust the tie at the front to get the perfect fit. They're great for casual outings or can be dressed up with the right top. When it comes to maintenance, it's best to follow the care instructions on the label. Usually, a gentle machine wash in cold water and air - drying is a good idea. Avoid using harsh detergents as they might damage the delicate crochet fabric. Also, be careful when handling the ruffled trim to prevent it from getting snagged.
