Care Instructions – Keep Your Aayat Studio Pieces Beautiful

Your handcrafted embroidery suit or designer ethnic wear from Aayat Studio is a labour of love. With the right care, your pieces will remain vibrant, beautiful, and long-lasting for years to come. Please follow these care instructions to preserve the quality of your garment.

General Care Guidelines

Always read the care label attached to your garment before washing
Wash dark and light coloured garments separately to prevent colour bleeding
Turn the garment inside out before washing to protect the embroidery
Avoid soaking embroidered garments for extended periods
Do not wring or twist the fabric — gently squeeze out excess water

Washing Instructions

Machine Wash

Our premium cotton ethnic suits are machine washable. Please follow these guidelines:

Use a gentle / delicate cycle with cold or lukewarm water (max 30°C)
Use a mild detergent suitable for delicate fabrics
Place the garment in a mesh laundry bag to protect the embroidery during the wash cycle
Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals

Hand Wash

For best results, especially for heavily embroidered pieces, we recommend hand washing:

Use cold or lukewarm water with a mild detergent
Gently agitate the fabric — do not scrub the embroidery directly
Rinse thoroughly until all detergent is removed
Gently press out excess water without wringing

Drying Instructions

Air dry in shade — avoid direct sunlight as it can fade colours and weaken embroidery threads
Lay flat to dry or hang on a padded hanger to maintain the shape
Do not tumble dry embroidered garments

Ironing & Steaming

Iron on the reverse side of the garment to protect the embroidery
Use a low to medium heat setting suitable for cotton
Place a thin cloth or pressing cloth between the iron and the embroidery
Alternatively, use a garment steamer for a gentle, safe option
Never iron directly over embroidery, sequins, or embellishments

Storage Tips

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
Fold neatly or hang on padded hangers to avoid creasing
Use muslin or cotton garment bags for long-term storage — avoid plastic bags which can trap moisture
Keep away from sharp objects that could snag the embroidery threads
