Quick answer
Hand-wash your Obsessed bodysuit in cold water with a gentle detergent, then air-dry flat to protect the mesh, ring hardware, and shape.
Why special care matters for butterfly-inspired lingerie
The Obsessed bodysuit combines delicate mesh with metal ring attachments—two materials that need different handling. Machine washing can snag the mesh or break the ring loops, while high heat degrades stretchy fabric. A little caution now keeps the bold look intact longer.
Step-by-step washing and care routine
- Pretreat spots gently: If you see makeup or sweat marks, dab a tiny drop of mild lingerie soap onto the stain and rub the fabric against itself—don't scrub. Rinse under cold running water immediately. Never use bleach or fabric softener; they break down elastic and mesh.
- Hand-wash in cold water: Fill a basin with cool water and add a capful of gentle lingerie detergent. Submerge the bodysuit and gently swish it for about 3 minutes. Pay special attention to the gusset and underarm areas. Rinse with fresh cold water until no suds remain. Hot water weakens the stretch fibers and can warp the ring attachment.
- Press out moisture, don't wring: Lay the wet bodysuit flat on a dry towel. Roll the towel up and press firmly to absorb excess water. Unroll and reshape the garment. Wringing twists the mesh and can permanently stretch the fabric. Reshape the thong and ring so they lie flat—otherwise they dry in a bunched position.
- Air-dry flat away from heat: Place the bodysuit on a drying rack or a second dry towel, keeping it flat. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from radiators, dryers, or irons. Drying usually takes 4–8 hours depending on humidity. Never use a clothes dryer—even low heat will shrink the mesh and ruin the fit.
- Store flat or hang by the straps: Once fully dry, fold the bodysuit gently and store it in a lingerie drawer, or hang it on a padded hanger by the shoulder straps. Avoid folding over the ring as it can create a permanent crease in the mesh. If you hang it, make sure the straps are wide enough to support the weight; otherwise the straps may stretch.

Obsessed: Contrast mesh with ring attachment on thong. The ring can catch or bend in the wash; always hand-wash or use a mesh bag to protect it.
