Material | How to Wash | How to Store |
---|---|---|
Leather | Dry Clean | Preferably hung in a breathable bag, in the least light-exposed room. |
Silk | Dry Clean | Preferably hung in a cotton breathable bag in a least light-exposed room. |
Mixed Fabrics | Dry Clean | Preferably hung in a least light-exposed room to ensure that the piece will not get deformed throughout its shelf life. |
Denim | Cold Wash / Preferably Dry Clean | Preferably hung in half lengthwise to keep the Denim pieces from scrunching. However, jeans pieces are the most flexible; they can be folded, yet the state of light exposure of the room should stay the same as it is for all the pieces. |
Velvet | Cold Wash / Dry Clean | Preferably hung or folded in the least light-exposed room. It is even better to turn the piece inside out if it has a side with a different material. Moreover, it is advised to brush it every once in a while (1-2 times a month) to ensure better maintenance of the pieces. |
Wool | Dry Clean | Hung or folded in cotton breathable bags in the least light-exposed room. Moreover, wool needs to be brushed out or inspected every once in a while to make sure that the moisture of the space did not affect it, as well as the material did not rip apart due to bugs or insects. Therefore, moth repellent would be great, and the use of natural repellants would be better, such as lavender bags. |
P.S: For all garments, we advise tossing in a moisture absorber within the same shelf/cupboard they will be placed in. In addition, all the pieces should be in a dark, cold room to avoid any damage such as sun impairment, discoloration, or even insects around the area. Lastly, the room should have a maximum temperature of 25 degrees Celsius.
