Caring Tips 

1. Gentle Hand Wash:

   • Hand wash the kurti in cold water using a mild detergent. Avoid harsh scrubbing, as it can damage the kasavu border and delicate embroidery.

2. Avoid Machine Wash:

   • Machine washing may tangle and loosen the handwork beads. Always opt for gentle hand washing or dry cleaning.

3. Dry in Shade:

   • Do not dry the kurti in direct sunlight, as it may fade the gold kasavu border and damage the beadwork.

4. Ironing:

   • Use a low-temperature iron to prevent damaging the kasavu. Turn the kurti inside out to iron areas with bead embroidery to avoid snags.
   • Avoid steam ironing on the beadwork.

5. Storage:

   • Store the kurti in a cool, dry place. Wrap it in a muslin cloth or tissue paper to prevent friction with other garments.
   • Avoid hanging it for long periods, as the hand embroidery may sag.

6. Beadwork Care:

   • Inspect the handwork embroidery for loose beads after every wash. Handle gently to prevent damage.

7. Stain Removal:

   • Immediately spot-clean any stains using a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not rub harshly, as it may harm the fabric and embroidery.

8. Dry Cleaning for Best Results:

   • For occasional or festive wear, professional dry cleaning ensures the kurti remains vibrant and fresh for years.
