Fabric Care

Because every Neeli piece is crafted to last.

At Neeli, our fabrics are thoughtfully chosen and carefully crafted to celebrate Indian tradition, comfort, and everyday elegance. Proper care helps preserve the beauty, colour, and life of your garments. Here’s how you can keep your Neeli pieces looking fresh for years to come.

1. Cotton & Cotton Blends

Breathable, soft, and perfect for daily wear.

Washing

Hand wash separately in cold water for the first few washes

Use mild detergent only

A Gentle Reminder

Natural fabrics, hand processes, and traditional dyeing techniques may result in slight variations in colour and texture. These are not imperfections — they are what make each Neeli piece unique.
