- Remove promptly to reduce wrinkles
Do’s and don’ts
| Do | Don’t |
|---|---|
| Cold water wash | Hot water that can shrink cotton |
| Gentle cycle for lace trim | Wash with jeans, zippers, or Velcro |
| Low heat dry | High heat that stiffens fabric |
| Mesh bag for delicate lace | Overload the washer |
Keeping cotton soft over time
Softness fades fastest from high heat and harsh detergent overload. A mild detergent, cold wash, and low drying heat keep lightweight cotton nightgowns comfortable for nightly rotation.
If your climate is humid, wash more often with cold water rather than using hotter cycles— fresh cotton sleeps better than heavily treated fabric.
Why easy care matters for IZZY + TOBY
