The world of fabrics and washing is huge and there are so many significant details about them. Of course the information of how to treat the clothes are usually mentioned on them, but still there are several tips we want to kindly share with you in order to help you with the first steps in the world of fabrics care.
So, let’s start!
1․Let’s talk about wool!
Wool is a popular natural fiber. Wool suits, scarves and jackets need dry cleaning ONLY since washing can have a destructive effect on the fabric․ The jackets, scarves or suits should be hung on a correct hanger if you are not wearing them. The ironing must be gentle, set up at moderate heat to keep their great appearance.
2․ What about cotton?
Cotton is so famous for its coolness and softness. Occasional ironing is a good solution for cotton. The cotton should not be too dry in case of ironing, so you may use some moisture e.g. steam or a damp garment. This will be useful for removing difficult creases. Pure cotton clothes just like any other material should be hung or folded with care and love.
3․You may ask about silk
Silk is natural fabric and is popular for its luster and draping qualities. It is also well-known for its coolness and lightness in hot weather. As in the case of wool, dry cleaning is the best solution for silk. Although in certain circumstances hand washing may be a better option, to be on the safe side.
4․Linen, linen!
Linen is another natural fabric suitable for warm weather and can easily be combined with silk fabrics for emi-formal occasions. A natural characteristic of linen is creasing and occasional ironing. Ironing should be done very gently using a steam iron or a damp cloth. Dry cleaning of linen should be done professionally.
