Caring for Your Uniform

Hand Washing

(preferred method)

  • Use cold water and a mild detergent.
  • Gently agitate the uniform in water to clean, avoiding scrubbing to protect rhinestones and fabric.
  • DO NOT:
    • Soak the uniform.
    • Use bleach or fabric softeners.

Machine Washing

(if hand washing is not possible)

  • Use a delicate cycle with cold water and a mild detergent.
  • Place the uniform in a protective garment bag to minimise wear and tear.
  • DO NOT:
    • Soak the uniform.
    • Use bleach or fabric softeners.

Drying Your Uniform

  • Lay the uniform flat to dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
  • DO NOT:
    • Use a tumble dryer, as heat can cause shrinkage and damage.
    • Expose the uniform to direct sunlight, which can lead to fading and fabric weakening.
