Our pieces are made to be worn often and kept for years. A little care makes the difference.
General principles
- Wash less often — airing between wears keeps colour and shape.
- Cool wash (30°C or below), inside out, on a delicate cycle.
- Line dry in the shade. Tumble drying shortens the life of the fabric.
- Iron inside out on a low setting. Steaming is gentler than pressing.
By fabric
Cotton and cotton blends
Cool machine wash. Line dry. Iron warm.
Silk and satin
Hand wash cold with a silk-safe detergent, or dry clean. Never wring — roll in a towel to press out water. Iron on the reverse at the lowest setting.
Polyester and blends
Cool machine wash on a delicate cycle. Line dry. Do not tumble dry on high heat — polyester fibres soften and pill under sustained heat.
Chiffon and mesh
Hand wash cold, or use a mesh laundry bag. Do not wring. Line dry flat, away from direct sun.
Storage
- Hang structured pieces (dresses with defined shoulders, coats) on padded hangers.
- Fold heavier knits and pleated pieces — hanging distorts them over time.
- Keep in a cool, dry, ventilated space away from direct sunlight.
Stains
Attend to spills as soon as you can. Blot — don’t rub — with a clean, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, take the piece to a professional cleaner rather than attempting to treat it yourself.
