'bubbly as I am' distressed olive silk skirt and top set
These two pieces were meant for each other! But each can stand on its own as well with other pairings. (Please note that together they are offered at a discount, but can also be purchased separately, please ask). Made out of different types and textures silks, both skirt and top are lightweight, comfortable, and distressed just enough to add a modern touch to the look. The skirt is made of crinkled taffeta silk, with its characteristic texture and feel, hand-died and distressed to add the variations in shades and color. It has a slight bubble shape, with slits in the middle, zipper and an elastic portion on the waist to assure a perfect fit, and of course a signature fun pocket on the hip. The asymmetrical tank top is made out of luxurious brocade silk that has a pronounced 3 texture, with a semi-abstract floral design, with linen inserts and raw edging in matching colors. It has been hand-painted and distressed to match the skirt and has some needlework added for an extra artistic touch, along with a pocket on the longer side. Airy, pleasant to wear, also easy care - both are perfect for traveling and easy to match to a variety of other outfits. Product code: A0326

Very brief cold water hand wash, a few drops of mild detergent, always separately, spin in washer and dry on medium, or air dry and finish in dryer to soften. Also can be dry cleaned by mild methods, or dry cleaned in dryer at home with a store-bought kit. Do not use stain removers, spot treaters or bleach pens. Contact us for any advice, if needed.
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.
