Because nobody wants their favorite kurti to look 3 years old after 3 washes.
Let’s talk laundry.
You finally found that perfect cotton kurti—it fits just right, breathes like a dream, and the color? Stunning.
But fast forward a few washes, and suddenly it’s looking... tired. Faded. Sad.
Sound familiar?
We get it — cotton is that girl for everyday wear, especially in Indian summers. But it needs a little TLC to keep those colors vibrant and fabrics fresh.
Here’s how to show your cottons some love and make them last longer (without turning laundry into rocket science):
👚 1. Wash Cold, Not Bold
Always use cold water. Hot water breaks down fibers and causes colors to bleed faster.
Cold water is gentler and does the job just fine.
🧼 2. Flip Before You Dip
Turn clothes inside out before washing. It helps protect the visible side from rubbing against other clothes and keeps the color richer for longer
🧴 3. Be Gentle (With Detergents Too)
Choose a mild, liquid detergent made for delicates or colors.
Harsh detergents = harsh fade.
And remember, less is more —don’t overpour!
🌞 4. Sun? Not Always Fun.
Dry your cottons in the shade.
Sunlight fades colors, especially darker shades like indigo, maroon, or emerald.
A gentle breeze and indirect light are all you need.
🌀 5. Don’t Overwash
If it’s not sweaty or stained, skip the wash.
Cotton doesn’t always need daily laundering, especially when you’re indoors or lightly dressed. The more you wash it, the quicker it fades.
👗 6. Wash Similar Colors Together
Separate lights, darks, and brights.
It might feel like a lot of buckets, but trust us — your favorite peach kurta will thank you.
🧺 Real Talk:
No-fade cotton care isn’t about perfection. It’s about little switches — a cold rinse here, a shady dry there — that go a long way in making your wardrobe last.
At The Pajama Factory, our cotton pieces are pre-washed and quality checked — but the real magic happens in how you care for them.
