I get what youâre saying but hereâs the reason Iâm not gonna iron. If I was to purchase say a dress, I would wash it when I got home anyway regardless of how it looked in the shop so ironing is pointless.
If someone purchases a dress and doesnât atleast wash it before wearing then they probably donât iron either so why should I?

My only beef with this is - why buy a garment if you donât know if it will fit? I would still wash it when I got it home, but I would hope to have some idea if the garment was going to fit me or I wouldnât buy it in the first place. The fit can change fairly dramatically between ironed and un-ironed - particularly the set over the shoulders, and sleeve length, so I would recommend at least basic ironing.

Yes but Iâm not the one selling them.
