For washing linen garments we recommend that it be done by hand. If you decide to wash it in the washing machine, we advise you to use a cloth or mesh bag to protect it from snags. Select a special program for delicate garments (short and low temperature). In both cases, by hand or by machine, make sure that the garment is well rinsed, soap residues can leave stains on the fabric. *In all washes we recommend doing it with neutral soap/detergent without optical brightener. This compound bleaches and deteriorates garments over time*
