Hmm.....but wud cotton come under 'latest' fashion? :?
hm... never knew this. but i know that my mum washes her cotton blouses before so that it becomes less tranparent.Quote:
OK I think I cud give a tip here :) - wen u buy a cotton Saree, inskirt or even blouse, its sure to hav too much dye in it....so as soon as u take it home after buying, soak it in a bucket of water for a while, b4 u wear it for the 1st time.....my mother wud do tat wenever she bought cotton sarees/inskirts/blouses......let it loose the unwanted dye....cos if u wear it straightaway, the colour from the dye is sure to stick on to ur body.....:oops:
