Caring for your new Hucklebones garment
We hope the memories made while wearing this garment will be cherished for years to come. To help keep it as beautiful as the day you bought it, we’ve outlined some helpful care hints below.
Protect from Sunlight
Hang your garment away from direct sunlight. This will ensure its beautiful colours remain as vivid as the day you first unwrapped it.
Follow the Care Label
Always check the wash care label inside your garment. Each piece is made from carefully chosen fabrics and trims, and the instructions ensure the most appropriate cleaning method is used. We do not recommend tumble drying, as heat can damage delicate fibres and trims.
Handle Fabrics with Care
Many of our fabrics are woven with metallic threads or silky-smooth yarns. To keep them looking perfect, avoid contact with rough surfaces such as Velcro (often found on shoes or toys), which can catch and damage the delicate weave.
Stains & Spills
Although our fabrics are exquisite in look and feel, they are also chosen for their durability. When the correct wash guidelines are followed, most childhood spills can be easily removed. So don’t worry if she drops her ice cream - let her enjoy the day.
Maintaining Volume
For our voluminous styles, steaming helps restore fullness. Begin by steaming the under layers from inside the skirt, then move to the outer layers. This ensures every tier regains its natural shape and volume.
Special Tip: Caring for Faux Fur
For our faux fur items, you can refresh the fibres to restore their softness and vitality:
- Set a hairdryer to medium heat.
- Hold it around 5 inches (12 cm) away from the garment.
- Gently direct the stream of air over the faux fur.
- This will fluff up the fibres, bringing pompoms and faux fur trims back to life with renewed bounce.
