To wear these Aya Pants, simply pull them up over your hips and adjust the drawstring to your preferred tightness at the waist. They're great for casual outings or semi - formal events. When it comes to care, machine - wash them in cold water on a gentle cycle to keep the cotton in good shape. Avoid using bleach as it might damage the fabric. After washing, lay them flat to dry to prevent shrinking. And don't iron them on high heat, a low - heat setting should be fine if you need to get rid of wrinkles.
