How To Take Care of Your Tutu Skirt / Dress..
Yay, you’ve finally received your stunning Tulle Boutique Creations tutu skirt or tutu dress and cannot wait to get it onto your little one who is about to burst! So exciting!!
However, you take it out of the box and find that it is crumpled…oh no! So, make sure you give the tutu a little shake to loosen it, for tutu dresses carefully comb your fingers through the tulle to loosen and separate each of the tulle layers. This will help to straighten out the tulle if it is twisted, knotted or crumpled.
Our tutu skirts and dresses are carefully packed however may become crumpled within the transporting process.
Here is a list of things you should know about caring for your Tulle Boutique Creations tutu skirt and tutu dress.
Cleaning Instructions
Tulle Boutique Creations tutu skirts and tutu dresses are created with comfort in mind and a whole lot of luxurious fun. Little girls love to wear them night and day which means our lovely tutus will eventually get dirty. Unfortunately, this cannot be avoided but it’s important to know how to safely clean your tutu.
Tips on how to care for your tutu:
❌ DO NOT wash your tutu skirt / dress in the washing machine
❌ DO NOT (EVER) put your tutu skirt / dress in the dryer, this will destroy your tutu. The drying process will rip and destroy the delicate tulle.
REPEAT – DO NOT PLACE YOUR TUTU SKIRTS / DRESSES IN THE WASH OR DRYER!
🌈 The best washing method for your tutu skirt or dress is to spot clean the dirty areas with soap and cold water. Rinse it thoroughly, comb your fingers through each layer of tulle.
🌈 If the entire tutu skirt/dress is dirty, instead of spot cleaning, cold hand wash the item in the sink and follow the same instructions as spot cleaning. Flatten out the tutu on a flat surface once it is all wet and wipe it gently with a non-abrasive soapy cloth or even try a baby wipe. Baby wipes can remove stubborn stains in small areas. Apply the same process for both the top and the bottom of the tutu dress.
🌈 Hang the tutu skirt or dress on a clothes hanger, indoors to dry. This will assist with a wrinkle free tutu once it is dry, it will also help the tulle to dry straight.
Taking Out Wrinkles
Who doesn’t love a beautifully crisp tutu skirt / dress with a lovely straight tulle skirt. So, let’s talk about how to remove the wrinkles from your tutu:
❌ DO NOT (EVER) IRON Tulle… Never Ever! You will destroy it, it will melt the tulle. Disaster!!
🌈 You can try steam from your shower🚿 Steam up the bathroom well and comb your fingers through the tulle to separate the layers and detangle. It should help de-wrinkle the tulle.
🌈 You can dip the tulle skirt into cold water and then hang up the tutu. Detangle the tulle with your fingers if required and then allow the weight of the wet tulle to de-wrinkle the tulle as it drip dries.
🌈 You can also try a hand-held steamer but ensure it’s on a very low setting! And do not place the steamer too close to the fabric because it will destroy it. Tulle does not like heat!
🌈 You can try using a dehumidifier… but very carefully. Place your tutu skirt / dress on a clothes hanger above the dehumidifier. Working from the inside out, carefully straighten the fabric by holding the tutu over it until it is fluffy again.
Frayed Ends
✂️ You will find that your little girl will want to wear her tutu always… even to bed! With so much wear and play the tulle can become frayed. If this happens simply take the dress off and use a sharp pair of scissors to cut the frayed ends off the tulle. Easy!
Storage
The best storage solution for a tutu skirt or dress is to hang them on a clothes hanger. This will ensure that the tulle does not crease and the garment retains its lovely shape until the next time your little girl wants to wear it.
📦 You can also store your tutu skirt or tutu dress in a box but you will have to remove the wrinkles and shape it and fluff it back into shape.
