To use this sweatshirt, simply put it on and enjoy its cozy warmth. As it's made to order, be patient during the 7 - 10 business days processing time. When it comes to washing, use a gentle cycle with cold water to keep the fabric and the faux - sequin design in good shape. Avoid using bleach as it might damage the colors. Hang it to dry to prevent shrinking. Also, try not to iron directly on the faux - sequin part to avoid any damage. This way, your sweatshirt will stay looking great for a long time.
