Lining is medium weight 100% cotton twill.
Interfacing used throughout is 100% polyester tricot interfacing.
All fabrications are from Angeles' collection of new, salvaged, or vintage materials of various sources.
All hardware is sourced from US based Etsy vendors with products of imported origin.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS:
To maintain original appearance, do not wash.
Washing/Drying will change the appearance and distort the shape.
The patches will fray, and surface will wrinkle and body will tweak, and it will shrink at least 5-10%.
Gentle washing by hand can minimize change, but washing by machine is still possible, but will yield more dramatic change.
Pressing with Steam Iron will help smooth appearance.
Press with iron carefully around hidden magnet at flap and front body.
Press/Stretch Shoulder Strap flat as washing will distort shape and shrink.
Use of mesh bag recommended to protect metal hardware (or hand wash strap/not in machine).
Fraying of patches will occur, hand repair by sewing/embellishment is encouraged, or visit craft/sewing shop for non sewing options like iron on patches or glues.
