Wash Care:
Wash separately in mild detergent or soapnut powder, with cool water and dry in shade, preferably. If it is being sun-dried, remove it immediately after it dries; the harsh sun can fade a saree.
The saree does not need ironing if it dries without any creases.
Dry clean is a great option ,too if easily available.
The colour may or may not bleed depending on the dye used.
