I bought this a while ago and stored it after trying it on. I think I've washed it at home once! It can be worn either way (front or back) (^^) The ribbon is removable. It has no stretch. I don't see any stains or damage as far as I can tell, but please understand that this is based on my personal storage and visual inspection. Please consider this before purchasing m(_ _)m [Measurements when laid flat] Length: approx. 58cm Width: approx. 56cm #MiMiSHOP_XL
