Care Instructions
Simple care habits keep your pieces looking sharp for longer—preserving fit, drape, and finish.
General care
- Follow the care label inside the garment—label instructions take priority.
- Wash less when possible. Spot-clean minor marks to preserve fabric and color.
- Turn garments inside out before washing to reduce abrasion and fading.
- Separate lights and darks. Avoid overloading the machine.
Washing
- Use cold or lukewarm water for most items unless the label says otherwise.
- Choose a gentle cycle for delicates and structured pieces.
- Use mild detergent. Avoid bleach unless explicitly stated on the label.
- For delicate fabrics, use a mesh laundry bag.
Drying
- Air-dry whenever possible to reduce shrinkage and maintain shape.
- Lay knitwear flat to dry to prevent stretching.
- Avoid direct sun for dark colors to minimize fading.
- If using a dryer, use low heat and remove promptly.
Ironing & steaming
- Steam is ideal for most fabrics and helps refresh between wears.
- If ironing, use the recommended temperature and iron inside out when possible.
- Use a pressing cloth for delicate fabrics to avoid shine marks.
Storage
- Hang jackets, coats, and tailored pieces on structured hangers.
- Fold knitwear to prevent shoulder stretch.
- Store in a cool, dry place. Use breathable garment bags for special pieces.
- Keep away from perfumes and oils that can stain or discolor fabric.
Special fabrics
- Leather & suede: avoid water, blot immediately, and use a specialist cleaner.
- Silk: avoid harsh agitation; consider professional dry cleaning for best results.
- Denim: wash inside out, cold, and less frequently to preserve color.
- Wool: air out between wears; dry clean only if needed per label.
