Care & instruction

Garment Care Guide – Olive Rae

At Olive Rae, we take pride in the quality and craftsmanship of our garments. To ensure your clothing maintains its beauty, fit, and longevity, please follow the care instructions below.

General Garment Care Tips

  • Check the Label: Always refer to the care label inside each garment before washing.

  • Wash Separately: Separate light and dark colors to prevent color transfer.

  • Minimize Washing: Overwashing can wear down the fabric. When possible, air out garments after wearing.

For Women’s Dresses

  • Gentle Cleaning: Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold or lukewarm water.

  • Mild Detergents Only: Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals, especially on delicate fabrics.

  • Drying: Lay flat or hang in a shaded area to dry. Do not tumble dry.

  • Ironing: Use a low-heat iron or steam from the reverse side. Avoid direct heat on printed or embellished areas.

For Coats & Jackets

  • Spot Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to gently clean minor stains or spots.

  • Dry Cleaning Recommended: Especially for structured or lined jackets to maintain shape and integrity.

  • Proper Storage: Hang on a sturdy hanger and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

  • Avoid Machine Wash: Machine washing may damage the fabric or structure.

Fabric-Specific Care

  • Cotton Blends: Wash with cold water. Tumble dry on low or air dry to prevent shrinkage.

  • Polyester/Spandex: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use low heat or air dry.

  • Wool or Wool-like Fabrics: Dry clean only unless stated otherwise on the care label.

Packaging Note

To reduce environmental impact, our garments are packaged responsibly. As a result, slight creasing may occur. A gentle steam or light iron will restore the garment to its original shape.
