Clothing care instructions

GENERAL CARE

Read Labels: Always check the care labels on your garments for specific instructions.
Sorting: Sort your laundry by fabric type, color, and washing instructions to prevent damage and color bleeding.
Delicates: Use a laundry bag for delicate items to protect them during washing.
Clean Before Storing: Ensure all garments are clean before storing to prevent stains from setting and attracting pests.
Use Hangers Wisely: Use padded hangers for delicate fabrics to maintain their shape.
Avoid Plastic Bags: Store clothes in breathable fabric bags instead of plastic to prevent moisture buildup and mildew.

LACE

Lace is delicate and requires special attention to maintain its intricate beauty.

Washing: Hand wash in cold water with a gentle detergent. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric.
Drying: Lay flat on a clean towel and roll it up to remove excess water. Reshape and lay flat to dry.
Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting with a cloth barrier between the lace and the iron to prevent damage.

CROCHET

Crochet garments are handcrafted and need gentle care to maintain their structure.

Washing: Hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent. Do not wring or stretch the fabric.
Drying: Gently press out excess water and lay flat to dry on a clean towel. Reshape while damp.
Storage: Store folded in a cool, dry place to prevent stretching and damage.

ITALIAN SILK

Italian silk is a luxurious fabric that requires delicate handling.

Washing: Dry clean for best results. If hand washing, use cold water and a silk-specific detergent. Avoid soaking for extended periods.
Drying: Do not wring. Roll in a towel to remove excess water, then lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight.
Ironing: Use a low heat setting and iron on the reverse side or with a cloth barrier.

DENIM

Denim is durable but can fade and wear out if not cared for properly.

Washing: Turn inside out and wash in cold water to preserve color. Use a mild detergent.
Drying: Air dry whenever possible to prevent shrinkage and fading. If using a dryer, choose a low heat setting.
Ironing: Iron on a medium heat setting while the fabric is slightly damp for best results.

OTHER FABRICS

Washing: Machine wash in cold or warm water with like colors. Use a gentle cycle for delicate items.
Drying: Tumble dry on low or medium heat. Remove promptly to reduce wrinkling.
Ironing: Iron on a high heat setting with steam.

Washing: Hand wash in cold water with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid agitation.
Drying: Lay flat to dry on a towel. Do not hang, as this can stretch the fabric.
Ironing: Use a steam iron on a low setting. Place a cloth between the iron and the wool to prevent damage.
