Here at Natural
Curves we specialise in lingerie, swimwear, nightwear and shapewear garments for
the fuller figure and we want to ensure that after your valued purchase that
using the care information below will help in keeping your garment in best
condition.
UNDERWIRED
GARMENTS
Any
under wired garments including bras and swimwear require the same care when
washing. Natural Curves recommend that you always hand wash these items as
machine washing can often misshape the wires, shrink the delicate fabrics and
cause the wires to push through the fabric. We also recommend that drying of
under wired garments is away from direct sources of heat such as radiators or
tumble dryers as these can also damage the wires.
SWIMWEAR
Natural Curves recommends that to prolong the life of your swimwear you ensure
that the garment is rinsed in cool tap / fresh water immediately after you have
used it. This will help to protect the garment from the damaging effects of
suntan lotion, chlorine, saltwater residue and perspiration. Please also avoid
the use of fabric softeners as these can also damage Lycra and can degrade many
swimwear fabrics. Please ensure that you are always protected from the effects
of the sun by using suntan lotion as our swimwear product do not offer
protection from the sun's powerful rays and you may still be burnt through your
swimwear. We recommend the application of suntan lotion in advance of putting
on your swimwear as many brands of lotion can stain the swimwear fabrics.
LINGERIE
Natural Curves recommend hand washing of underwear to
keep it in best condition. Hot water can damage delicate fabrics, applications,
elastics and bindings so cool water when hand washing is recommended. Using
cool water will also aid in keeping the colour of the garment and will help to
prevent from white fabrics going grey.
SHAPEWEAR
GARMENTS
Natural Curves recommend that in order for these garments to perform as
designed that the garment is washed by hand in cool water each day after use.
As these performance garments use technical fabrics and specialist construction
methods then they should be dried away from direct heat such as radiators and
tumble dryers and should be laid flat for best results.
NIGHTWEAR
AND OTHER CLOTHING
Most of our nightwear and sleepwear clothing styles are machine washed at 30°C
or are dry clean only. To keep these garments in best condition ensure that you
follow the washing, ironing and drying instructions on the label inside the
garment.
HOSIERY
Hosiery items should be washed by hand in cool water and
dried away from direct heat sources.
