Clothing Care Guide

Proper care keeps your wardrobe looking sharp and lasting longer. Follow these simple guidelines to maintain the quality and appearance of your garments.

1. Cotton & Linen Care

Cotton and linen are breathable, natural fibers that are comfortable and easy to care for.

Washing

Machine wash in cold or warm water (max 30–40°C) with similar colors.
Use a mild detergent; avoid bleach or optical brighteners.
Turn garments inside out to protect prints or dark colors.
For linen, gentle cycle is recommended to reduce wrinkling.

Drying

Air dry whenever possible. Hang or lay flat away from direct sunlight.
Tumble dry on low heat if needed, but remove promptly to minimize wrinkles.
Cotton may shrink slightly; preshrunk fabrics are less likely to change size.

Ironing

Iron cotton while slightly damp on medium-high heat.
Linen is best ironed with steam on high heat, preferably while still damp.
Use a pressing cloth for dark fabrics to avoid shine.

2. Wool & Cashmere Care

Wool and cashmere are luxurious, insulating fibers that require gentle handling.

Washing

Dry clean is recommended for structured suits, coats, and fine knits.
For washable wool, use cold water (max 30°C) and a wool-specific detergent.
Do not wring or twist; gently squeeze out excess water.
Hand wash is safer than machine for delicate items.

Drying

Lay flat on a clean towel to dry, reshaping gently.
Never hang wool or cashmere when wet, as it can stretch.
Avoid direct heat or sunlight; dry away from radiators.

Storage

Fold knits and sweaters to prevent stretching on hangers.
Store with cedar blocks or lavender sachets to repel moths.
Brush lightly with a garment brush to remove pilling and dust.

3. Synthetic & Blended Fabrics (Polyester, Nylon, Elastane)

These materials are durable, wrinkle-resistant, and easy to maintain.

Washing

Machine wash in cold or warm water (max 40°C) with similar colors.
Use a regular detergent; avoid fabric softeners which can degrade elastane.
Turn inside out to reduce friction and pilling.

Drying

Tumble dry on low heat or air dry.
Remove from dryer promptly to prevent static cling.
Do not iron synthetic fabrics; use a low-heat steam setting if necessary.

General Tips

Always check the care label inside the garment.
Treat stains immediately by blotting (not rubbing) with a mild soap solution.
Store clean items in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
Rotate your wardrobe to reduce wear on frequently worn pieces.
