Care Recommendations
Fabric Care Guide
At Rooh, every garment is thoughtfully handcrafted using natural fabrics, traditional techniques, and delicate finishes.
To keep your piece looking beautiful for years to come, please follow the care instructions below. Each fabric is unique and deserves gentle handling.
Cotton, Mul Cotton, Linen, and Cotton Blends
Wash
– Hand wash in cold water using a mild, pH-neutral detergent
– Wash printed garments separately to prevent colour transfer
– Spot clean when possible to preserve the fabric
– If hand-dyed: Dry clean only — we use natural dyes which may bleed
– Avoid soaking for extended periods
Dry
– Line dry in the shade or lay flat to dry
– Do not tumble dry
Iron
– Iron on the reverse side using medium to warm heat
– Safe to steam, especially for linen pieces
Storage
– Hang or fold, depending on the garment’s weight and structure
– Store away from direct sunlight to prevent fading
– We are not responsible for discolouration caused by sun exposure during storage
Silk Taffeta, Silk Modal, and Silk Blends and Silk Organza
Wash
– Dry clean recommended to preserve structure and finish
Dry
– Air dry in the shade after each wear
– Do not tumble dry
Iron
– Light steam from a distance is best
– Always avoid direct contact between the iron and fabric
– Use a pressing cloth if needed
Storage
– Use padded hangers to help structured garments retain their shape
– Fold with tissue paper to prevent creases
– Avoid tight or over-packed storage spaces
– Store away from direct sunlight to prevent fading
– We are not responsible for discolouration caused by sun exposure during storage
Hand-Dyed Fabrics
Hand-Dyed Dresses and Gowns
– We do not recommend washing, as we use natural plant-based dyes
– Spot clean only when absolutely necessary
– Steam only — do not use a dry iron directly on the fabric
– Colour bleed or gentle fading over time is normal and part of the artisanal process
For Separates and Sets
– First wash separately by hand in cold water
– Use a mild, pH-neutral or natural detergent
– Do not soak, scrub, or wring — gently swish and rinse
– A small amount of colour bleed is normal due to the hand-dyeing process
Drying & Ironing (Separates and Sets only)
– Lay flat or hang to dry in the shade
– Avoid direct sunlight, which may cause fading
– To remove excess water, gently roll the garment in a towel and press
– Iron on the reverse side using low to medium heat
– Use a pressing cloth over darker or dyed areas
– Steaming is safe, but avoid excessive steam to protect the dye integrity
Printed Fabrics
Applies to Dresses, Gowns, Sets, and Separates
Wash
– First wash separately by hand in cold water
– Use a natural or pH-neutral detergent
– Do not soak, scrub, or wring — gently swish and rinse
– Some colour bleed is expected and reflects the artisanal printing process

– Lay flat or hang in the shade
– Avoid direct sunlight, which can fade printed surfaces
– Roll in a towel to gently press out excess water
