How to Take Care of Your Hand Embroidered Kurti (So It Lasts for Years)

You invested in a beautiful hand embroidered kurti — now let’s make sure it stays beautiful for years. Follow these simple care tips:
1. Always Dry Clean or Hand Wash
Never machine wash embroidered kurtis. The machine’s agitation can damage delicate threads and loosen embroidery. Always hand wash gently in cold water.
2. Use Mild Detergent
Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach. Use a gentle fabric wash or baby shampoo to protect both the fabric and embroidery threads.
3. Don’t Wring or Twist
After washing, gently press out water — never wring. This protects the embroidery from distorting.
4. Dry in Shade
Direct sunlight can fade the thread colors. Always dry your kurti in shade or indoors.
5. Iron Inside Out
Always iron on the reverse side of the embroidery. Direct heat on embroidery can flatten and damage the texture.
6. Store Properly
Fold carefully and store in a muslin cloth bag. Avoid plastic bags as they trap moisture and damage fabric.
