1. Ironing Care
Our Qipaos are crafted from silk and handmade. For the sake of safe transportation, they are packed in waterproof packaging. Once you receive it, use a steam iron at a low temperature to iron the Qipao. After ironing it smooth, let it sit for 10 - 15 minutes before trying it on. During the ironing process, avoid dripping too much water to prevent water stains.
2. Washing Care
Due to the special nature of the fabric and craftsmanship, refrain from washing the Qipao with water on your own. We recommend taking it to a dry cleaner.
3. Storage Care
Before storing the Qipao, iron it flat and then hang it up (avoid using metal hangers to prevent rust stains from contaminating the garment). Store it in a place away from moisture and sharp objects. It's not advisable to store it together with spun silk or fur clothing.
4. Sun Exposure Prevention
Silk is a protein fiber, and long - term exposure to the sun can cause the protein to denature, leading to yellowing, decay, or discoloration of the silk. Hence, don't expose the Qipao to the sun for extended periods.
5. Wearing Care
Silk fibers are delicate and can't withstand friction. Try to avoid rubbing the Qipao against mats, wooden boards, or rough surfaces. Also, don't spray deodorant or perfume on the Qipao.
