To wear this top, simply slip it on over your head. It's a great piece for both casual outings and more formal events. When you're washing it, use a gentle cycle and cold water to keep the metallic threading in good condition. Avoid using harsh detergents as they might damage the fabric. Hang it to dry instead of putting it in the dryer to prevent shrinkage. If it gets wrinkled, you can use a low - heat iron to smooth it out, but be careful not to touch the metallic parts directly with the iron.
