Why Care Matters for Your Petra Tencel Lounge Pyjama Set
The Petra Tencel Lounge Pyjama Set is made from stretch-TENCEL™ Modal, a fabric known for its softness, breathability, and temperature-regulating properties. Proper care keeps the fabric feeling luxurious and maintains the delicate blush piping on the charcoal set. Since TENCEL™ is a natural fiber derived from wood pulp, it requires gentler handling than synthetic blends.

How to Wash Your Petra Tencel Pyjama Set
Follow these steps to keep the stretch-TENCEL™ Modal fabric soft and the blush piping intact.
- 1. Turn the set inside out: This protects the outer surface and the piping from friction during the wash cycle.
- 2. Use a gentle machine cycle: Select a delicate or gentle cycle with cold or cool water. Hot water can weaken TENCEL™ fibers and cause shrinkage.
- 3. Choose a mild detergent: Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, or harsh chemicals. A mild liquid detergent preserves the fabric's natural softness and moisture-wicking ability.
- 4. Skip the dryer: Air-dry the set flat or on a drying rack away from direct heat and sunlight. Tumble drying can cause shrinkage and wear down the fibers.
- 5. Iron on low if needed: If wrinkles appear, use a low-heat iron. High heat can damage TENCEL™ Modal.
What to Avoid When Caring for TENCEL™ Modal
TENCEL™ Modal is durable but sensitive to certain treatments. Avoid wringing or twisting the wet fabric, as this can stretch the relaxed silhouette. Do not soak the set for long periods, and never use chlorine bleach. The charcoal color with blush piping is designed to stay vibrant, but harsh detergents can fade the piping over time. Stick to the care label and your set will feel like a gentle hug for years.
Storing Your Lounge Pyjama Set
Fold the set neatly and store it in a drawer or on a shelf away from direct sunlight, which can fade the charcoal color. Avoid hanging the set on thin wire hangers, as the weight of the long pants can cause stretching at the shoulders. A cool, dry place is ideal for maintaining the fabric's breathability and softness.
