Gotcha. Speaking of things I don't know about Seersucker, can I iron it? Also how should it be washed?

Honestly part of the charm of it is the texture. It loses that texture with ironing. If you wanted to I don't think it'd hurt to steam and just lightly iron. But again, that sorta takes away the point.

As for washing, just cold wash/hang dry (you should do that for everything anyways)

Yeah I don't want to **** with the texture. I'll probably just hang it up in the bathroom and take a hot shower, just to get the creases out.

I have a vulgar amount of CDG fragrance and some other ones that I wear regularly, cycle through about 7 or so. Currently obsessed with one from Six Scents, not sure what number but it's got fennel and fresh grass in it, so sick.
