Buying Vintage   Don’t always believe the label ~ vintage sizes are not the same as modern sizes, they usually come up much smaller.

Care Advice Use an eco-friendly laundry detergent. Hand or machine wash on a delicate / hand wash cycle. If using the machine, place inside a net laundry bag or pillowcase. Wash like colours together. Wash cold to keep colours bright. Do not dry in direct sunlight as colours can fade.
