How to Wash Rhinestone Jeans: A Gentle Care Guide
Published: Updated:
Rhinestone jeans need gentle handling around the embellishments as well as care for the denim itself. For BASHGA Riguela jeans, hand washing is recommended. Wash below 30°C, do not tumble dry, and avoid rubbing or ironing directly over the embellished areas. Follow the label on your own garment.
1. Check the label and prepare the jeans
Read the care label before washing. BASHGA's Fabric & Care instructions recommend hand washing, or a gentle cycle if machine washing, below 30°C. Do not bleach or dry clean.
Turn the jeans inside out and handle the rhinestone areas gently. Avoid scrubbing the stones or pulling at their attachment points.
2. Wash gently
Use a mild detergent and gentle movements when hand washing. If you use a machine, choose a gentle cycle and follow the garment label. A mesh laundry bag can help limit contact with other items, but it does not replace the care instructions.
For a small mark, dab gently with a soft cloth instead of rubbing the embellished area. Avoid abrasive brushes and harsh cleaners.
3. Air dry
Do not tumble dry BASHGA jeans. Hang or lay them flat to air dry, supporting the garment so its weight does not pull on the embellished areas. Avoid wringing or twisting around the rhinestones.
4. Use a low iron setting where permitted
BASHGA's care instructions specify a low ironing temperature. Avoid direct contact with embellishments; iron the denim from the reverse side where appropriate. The garment label takes priority over a general denim care tip.
