Care & Maintenance Instructions 🧥
Washing Guidelines
- Hand Washing (Recommended): Gently hand wash in cool water with mild detergent. This method preserves the fabric’s texture and metal hardware integrity.
- Machine Washing: If using a machine, place the coat in a fine mesh laundry bag on a delicate cycle with cool water
- Detergent Tips: Use gentle, non-concentrated detergents. Dissolve powder detergent completely before immersion to prevent residue
- Color Separation: Always wash dark and light colors separately to prevent dye transfer
- Avoid: Never use bleach, fabric softener, or highly concentrated cleaning agents as these may damage the marbled fabric or tarnish metal buttons
Drying & Storage
- Air Dry Only: Hang or lay flat in a shaded area to air dry completely. Never use a tumble dryer or expose to direct sunlight, which can fade the two-tone coloring
- Shape Preservation: Hang on a padded hanger between wears to maintain the tailored silhouette and prevent wrinkles
- Travel Storage: For travel, pack in a dry bag with acid-free tissue paper. Gently fluff and hang after arrival to restore its pristine appearance
- Long-Term Care: Store in a cool, dry closet away from moisture and direct light. Periodically air out to prevent mustiness

It celebrates authority, sophistication, and the freedom to express gender identity beyond conventional boundaries. This gothic ouji coat represents the subculture’s commitment to refined rebellion and artistic self-expression.
