CARE


Proper garment care is crucial for maintaining the longevity and quality of our pieces, especially when it comes to artisanal or carefully crafted garments. We kindly suggest reading the below recommendations:

1. General Care Instructions:

  • Read the Label: Always check the garment’s care label before washing or cleaning. It provides the best information on temperature, washing methods, and whether it's suitable for dry cleaning.
  • Hand Wash or Gentle Cycle: For delicate fabrics or detailed garments, hand washing in cool water is ideal. If using a washing machine, opt for the gentle or delicate cycle to avoid damage and make sure to use a mesh laundry bag to protect the pieces.
  • Use Mild Detergent: Choose a gentle, pH-neutral detergent to preserve the integrity of the fabric. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
  • Avoid Fabric Softener: Fabric softeners can affect the texture of certain materials, especially natural fibers like cotton or linen. It's best to avoid or use sparingly

2. Washing Specific Fabrics and Techniques:

  • Cotton: Cotton can generally be machine washed, but it's best to turn the garment inside out to protect colors and prevent wear. Wash in cold water and avoid high heat in the dryer.
  • Linen: Hand wash or machine wash in cold water. Avoid wringing out or twisting the fabric, as this can cause it to lose its shape. Linen often looks better with a natural, slightly wrinkled appearance.
  • Embroidery: Dry clean only, and avoid using steam or folding over the embroidery. To minimize pilling, keep the fabrics away from abrasive surfaces and accessories.
  • Knit: Dry clean only. Do not tumble dry. Store in a cool, dry, and dark place, keeping it as flat as possible to prevent stretching. Avoid hanging knitwear. To minimize pilling, keep the fabric away from abrasive surfaces and accessories.
  • Crochet: Hand-wash only. Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry; avoid hanging to prevent stretching. Store in a cool, dry, dark place, keeping the piece as flat as possible. To minimize pilling, keep it away from abrasive surfaces and accessories.
