Latex Nurse Dresses

White latex is highly sensitive to UV and metals. Direct sunlight causes "latex rot" (yellowing). Even more critical is copper or nickel contact (from coins, jewelry, or buttons), which causes permanent brown stains within minutes. Always handle with clean hands and store in a completely dark, opaque bag.

Wash quickly in cool water and dry immediately. Do not soak high-contrast items for long periods. Use a specialized latex soap, rinse thoroughly, and pat dry immediately with a lint-free towel. When drying, ensure the colored trim doesn't fold over and touch the white sections, as damp latex can transfer pigment.

Use plenty of silicone lube and wear cotton gloves. Because white latex shows every flaw, avoiding scratches is vital. Apply silicone dressing aid to your body. Wear thin white cotton gloves while pulling the dress on; this allows you to grip the material firmly with your palms and fingers without using sharp nails.

Store individually in separate zip-lock bags. Never store the hat, apron, and dress in the same bag without protection. If the dress is black/blue and the apron is white, they must be kept apart. For the hat, use acid-free tissue paper inside to help it maintain its shape and prevent it from being crushed.
