'a crisp touch' shirt-dress-to-tunic
A versatile piece that can be worn as a dress or as a long tunic. Made out of luxurious, textured antique silk, it is lightweight and crisp to the touch, yet with a great drape. An overall roomy design, shown pinned to the smaller size, so there is extra room if needed (please see measurements and let us know which size you prefer). Semi-sheer, with 3D texture in the fabric, painted by hand in beautiful deep colors, with large front pockets and rounded bottom, which makes it almost the shape of a shirt dress. Great for fall, too, with boots, or with flowy pants for year-round wear. Product code: J3989

Brief cold water hand wash, minimal detergent, dryer OK.
All garments arrive to you freshly cleaned, unlike regular store-bought items, and are ready to wear.
Dry-cleaning is ok on most items but only if gentle methods are used and the cleaners are familiar with cleaning hand-painted delicate fabrics.
To freshen up any item that doesn’t need deep cleaning simply mist it with a water spray and put in the dryer on medium heat for about 15 min.
All garments can be hand washed. Wash each item separately, cold water only, minimal amount of detergent, and as briefly as possible, no soaking. The wash can be followed by a spin in the washer and dried on medium heat until dry. Knits should be hung-dried and when dry, finished in the dryer for a few minutes to soften.
Hand-pressing may be necessary after the wash and dry to straighten out the seams and edges which tend to pucker or curl on natural fabrics.
Some hand-dyed items may leak a bit of color during the washing, that is normal and will not affect the item. Using liquid softener during the wash will minimize any color leaking.
For more tips and details please refer to the cleaning instructions card included with your package.
