Chiffon Tops FAQs
How do you care for and wash a chiffon top?
Chiffon tops are delicate, so gentle care is key. Here are our top tips for keeping your garments as good as new:
- Always check the care label first.
- Most chiffon can be hand-washed in cold water with a mild detergent.
- If using a washing machine, place your chiffon top in a mesh bag and select a gentle cycle on a low heat.
- Avoid twisting or wringing the fabric, or tumble-drying - instead, gently press out excess water and lay flat or pop on a hanger to dry.
- Keep chiffon away from direct heat and sunlight to maintain colour and softness.
How can I prevent my chiffon blouse from wrinkling?
To minimise wrinkles, store your chiffon tops on padded or slimline hangers in your wardrobe so they hang naturally. You’ll be able to remove most creases by lightly steaming the blouse, without damaging the delicate fibres.
If the wrinkles are stubborn, you can iron them out. We recommend using a low heat and placing a thin cloth between the iron and the fabric to protect your top.
Are chiffon tops comfortable for all-day wear?
One of the joys of a chiffon top is how lightweight and breathable it is, making it perfect for all-day wear.
Floaty fabrics drape effortlessly without feeling restrictive, so you can feel free whether you’re at work, running errands, or heading to an event. Layer under a blazer or cardigan if you want extra warmth, or wear solo in warmer weather.

How do I style a floral chiffon blouse for a summer event?
A floral chiffon blouse is perfect for summer events thanks to its light, airy feel and bright, cheerful colours. It looks lovely with a floaty maxi skirt, or you could add contrast with a fitted midi. Add strappy sandals or low heels, pop on some delicate jewellery, and you’ll have an outfit that’s fresh and fit for the summer.
What is the best fabric to pair with chiffon tops?
Chiffon tops are versatile and look gorgeous with a range of fabrics. For a relaxed look, soft cotton or linen bottoms work perfectly, as well as dark denim jeans. If you’re wanting to dress up, try a sharp pencil skirt or wide-legged trousers in stunning fabric, like velvet.
Our Visual Merchandiser, Charlotte Hall, says, “Silk or satin skirts with a chiffon top creates a chic, elegant ensemble. Mixing textures (for instance, soft chiffon with heavier or structured fabrics) will balance your outfit, making your chiffon number easy to wear for both daytime and evening occasions.”

How do I choose the right size for a chiffon blouse?
When selecting a chiffon blouse, remembering that it drapes naturally is key. The top should skim your body without clinging, so you can move around freely and show off its gorgeous details.
We recommend checking the bust and shoulder measurements on the size guide to make sure it sits correctly. And, if you plan to layer your chiffon top under a blazer or jumper, a slightly closer fit works best.
