••• 𝐒𝐡𝐢𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 / 𝐍𝐲𝐥𝐨𝐧 (𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐰𝐢𝐦 𝐅𝐚𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐬) •••

These are not bathing suits, we do not recommend swimming in them as they can restrict movement as well as cause color bleed. As with all nylon fabrics, due to the nature of the fabric, some color bleed is normal. We recommend washing before wearing. Do not put in the dryer. The dye has been known to transfer to other things such as skin, clothing, and other surfaces. We have never known these dyes to leave any permanent stains on any surface. Please wash before wearing with like colors. Machine wash cold, hang dry. Avoid excess heat and chlorine (including bleach) to preserve color and finish.

𝐕𝐞𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐭: 

Machine wash and dry, remove promptly. Store hung to prevent wrinkles. Due to the nature of this fabric it is likely it will arrive with wrinkles. To get wrinkles out and make the item look photo ready, a simple wash and dry will do the trick.

𝐇𝐚𝐢𝐫 𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬:

Scrunchies can be machine washed, but we recommend air drying to preserve their elastic. All other hair accessories should be gently hand washed and air dried.

𝐒𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐧𝐬:

For the metallic gold, pink, and blue sequin twirl dresses we recommend wash cold, HANG dry. 

For all other velvet sequin dresses you can machine wash and dry.

The A-line flip sequin dresses we recommend dry cleaning.

𝐅𝐚𝐮𝐱 𝐅𝐮𝐫𝐬:

Refer to item tag specifics, as some of our furs are machine washable while others are dry clean only.

𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐈𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐤: 

We recommend wash cold, hang dry to preserve the fabrics glow. If put in the dryer the glow will fade much faster.

𝟏𝟎𝟎% 𝐂𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐨𝐧:

Wash cold, hang dry or tumble dry low. 

𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐨𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐒𝐰𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐬:

Hi everyone!
My name is Ratna. (Sounds like Raught-na).
I am the Designer and Maker behind 'Fi and Me'.

I love to make high quality, unique girls apparel and accessories from beautiful specialty fabrics. I especially love creating twirly dresses and timeless styles that will look amazing no matter what the current trends may be. I believe that the early years of a young girls life are, and should be, MAGICAL! And that every girls first love, should be herself! It is this pursuit of joy & magic, mixed with the love for my own two daughters, that fuels my passion and creativity!

My journey began long ago! I had a childhood full of art classes and craft projects. When I was in 3rd grade, my Mom taught me how to sew a pillow case, and from there I became obsessed with sewing and all things fabric and textiles. I kept making and improving my skills all through middle, and high school. By the time I was in high school, I was making most of my own clothing (some of which must have looked a little funny). This included my own prom dresses and even dresses for my friends.

When I had my first child, Fiona, I began to sew for her. When I looked around the market for girls clothing and dresses, I was disappointed at the overall lack of quality. Everything seemed uninspired. It was either rubber duckies, or too "mature" for little girls. So I used my sewing skills to begin creating Fiona's clothing. After making some pretty amazing outfits for her, it dawned on me that other people might like them too! So I made a few extra and headed to my local Farmer's Market to become a vendor. Step by step my little idea grew from there and here we are twenty years later!

I will never stop making new things... the world just keeps making too many cool new fabrics! I'm completely obsessed!!!

Fiona now works beside me in this business. We MAKE everything here in the USA, and we ALWAYS will!

Feel free to reach out to us with questions or wholesale inquiries!
We love all of our wonderful customers!!!

Thank you so much for reading!
