material cleaning

The world of fabrics and washing is huge and there are so many significant details about them. Of course, the information on how to treat the clothes is usually mentioned on them, but still, there are several tips we want to kindly share with you in order to help you do the first steps in the world of fabrics.

So, let’s start!

Let’s talk about wool!

Wool is a popular natural fiber. Suits, scarves, and jackets need dry cleaning ONLY since washing can have a destructive effect on the fabric overall.  The jackets, scarves, or suits should be hung on the correct hanger if you are not wearing them. The ironing must be gentle and set up at moderate heat for keeping their great appearance. Cotton

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 as well as any other material should be hung or folded with care and love.

You may ask about silk

Silk is natural 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. 

Linen, linen!

This is again a natural fabric tailor-made for warm weather and Linen is another natural fabric suitable for warm weather and can easily be combined with silk fabrics for partially formal cases. 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 in case of linen should be done professionally.
