100% Viscose (double gauze)

Viscose is a versatile and widely used fabric known for its softness and fluidity. It is a type of rayon fabric made from regenerated cellulose fibers derived from wood pulp or other natural sources. Viscose is highly regarded for its comfortable and breathable qualities, making it a popular choice for clothing and textile applications.

One of the key characteristics of viscose is its excellent drape. The fabric has a natural flow and hangs beautifully, lending an elegant and graceful look to garments. It has a smooth and silky texture, making it pleasant to wear against the skin. Viscose fabric is commonly used in the creation of dresses, blouses, skirts, scarves, and other clothing items that require a soft and flowing aesthetic.

Viscose is also known for its vibrant and rich color absorption. It takes dyes exceptionally well, resulting in vivid and long-lasting hues. This quality makes viscose a favored fabric for creating vibrant and eye-catching designs.

In addition to its aesthetic appeal, viscose fabric offers breathability and moisture absorption, making it suitable for warmer climates. The fabric allows air to circulate, keeping the body cool and comfortable. It also has good moisture-wicking properties, drawing perspiration away from the skin.

Washing Instructions for Viscose Fabric
Hand Wash or Gentle Machine Wash: Viscose fabric is generally best cared for by hand washing. Fill a basin or sink with cool water and add a gentle detergent suitable for delicate fabrics. Gently agitate the garment in the soapy water, ensuring not to wring or twist it too vigorously. Rinse thoroughly with cool water.

If machine washing is preferred, select the delicate or gentle cycle with cool water and use a mild detergent specifically designed for delicate fabrics. Place the viscose garment in a mesh laundry bag to protect it from tangling or snagging.

Avoid Harsh Chemicals and Bleach: Harsh chemicals, chlorine bleach, and fabric softeners can damage viscose fabric. Opt for mild detergents without bleach or optical brighteners to preserve the fabric's color and softness.

Handle with Care: When washing or handling viscose fabric, avoid excessive agitation, twisting, or wringing, as these actions can cause stretching or damage. Instead, gently squeeze out excess water without wringing, and carefully reshape the garment.

Air Dry or Lay Flat: It is best to air dry viscose fabric to prevent shrinking and maintain its shape. Lay the garment flat on a clean, dry towel or drying rack away from direct sunlight or heat sources that may cause fading or distortion. Avoid hanging viscose garments, as they can stretch out of shape due to the fabric's weight when wet.

Iron with Caution: If ironing is necessary, set the iron to a low or medium heat setting. Iron the garment on the reverse side or use a pressing cloth to protect the fabric from direct heat. Alternatively, you can steam the garment to remove wrinkles without direct contact with the iron.

Store with Care: When storing viscose garments, ensure they are clean and completely dry. Fold them neatly and store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive humidity to prevent discoloration or mildew growth.

Non-Water Care for Viscose Fabric
Fresh Air Refreshing: Viscose fabric can be refreshed by hanging it in a well-ventilated area with fresh air. Choose a location where there is a gentle breeze or good airflow, such as an open window or a shaded outdoor area. This method helps to naturally eliminate odors and freshen up the fabric between washes.

Hang the viscose garment on a padded hanger or a clothesline, making sure it is fully extended and not bunched up. Allow the fabric to hang freely, ensuring that it doesn't come into contact with any dirty or dusty surfaces.
By utilizing this non-water care method, you can help maintain the freshness and cleanliness of your viscose garments without the need for a full wash.
