Yes. I wash in cold water with woollite at hand wash cycle for a very short period of time. My dress is shorter than it's linning after washed. My coworker also has a linen pants come out shrinked 3 inches and became shorter than the linning. I got her warning before I wash mine. I am trying to pull the dress make it longer than the linning before it is dry. I am waiting to see if it keep the length is kept after it's dry. I will never machine washed or buy 55% linen and 45% rayon blend clothing.

Will a 100 percent rayon shirt shrink?
All polymer based fibres / products will shrink when heated. The type of polymer dictates the level of heat required, while I do not know the specific temperature this occurs for Rayon, I am guessing maybe 180 C to 200 C. That is why the warning label says "do not tumble dry"... To safely see the shrinkage effect, fill a everyday water bottle with hot water from a tap !
