To wear this jacket, simply button it up and layer it over your favorite top. It's great for weddings, parties, or any special occasion. When it comes to maintenance, since it's made of linen, it's best to hand - wash it in cold water or use a gentle machine cycle. Hang it to dry to keep its shape. Avoid direct sunlight when drying to prevent color fading. And remember, iron it on a low heat setting while it's still a bit damp for the best results.
