Light cotton clothes are always great for staying cool during the summer. Cotton clothing has always made up a major portion of Indian women's wardrobes because of its quality and versatility. A simple cotton suit can be used for everyday use, and with little embroidery, you are good to go for a special occasion. Pair it with some matching jewellery and sandals, and you can create an entirely different look for yourself. It continues to be in demand today due
 to the flexibility it provides.

Cotton clothing is cozy, breathable, and durable. Cotton clothes are ready to be worn right after the wash, but pure cotton demands a little extra care to keep them looking their best for years. Cotton clothes are preferred by all groups of people because they can be washed in machines very easily. The only thing that requires attention is to wash them in cold water.

Read on for some wash and care instructions to keep your cotton suits and cotton dresses good for a longer time.

1. Cotton garments should always be washed in cold or lukewarm water. This prevents the garment from fading its colour and will also avoid shrinkage in size. This is one very important tip to keep your cotton clothes lasting longer and looking brand new at any time of the year.

2. Although machine washing is recommended, hand washing works best for pure cotton. This helps avoid wear and tear on the material.

3. Always opt for a shady spot to dry your cotton clothes. Avoid drying your cotton suits and dresses in direct sunlight. However, if it's white colour, you can opt for the option of drying it in harsh sunlight, but remember to take it as soon as it dries up. 

4. Whenever possible, choose fabric softeners and detergents with fewer chemicals for cotton clothing. This way, you can avoid your garments from getting spotted, stained, and worn out. This way, your cotton kurtis will remain supple and bright for many years.

5. Avoid chemical-rich dry-cleaning processes.

6. Because wrinkles and cotton have a common bond, a simple way to remove them is to iron them while they are still damp. This way, you can keep your cotton suit and dresses wrinkle-free and crisp. If your kurta has intricate embroidery, try ironing it from the inside out for that crisp, just-ironed appearance. Steam irons work best for cotton suits and dresses.

7. It is always recommended to read the instructions on clothing labels carefully. This will guide you on how to wash and take care of the garment. 

8. Opt for the gentle wash cycle in your machine when the garment has lace and
embellishments stitched on it.

I am extra sure that by following this guideline, you will definitely become a pro at handling cotton garments. Garments made from cotton are versatile, as they can be worn in Indian summers and chilly winters.
