Basics:
- Hand Wash: Always hand wash your bras and lingerie in cool water using a gentle lingerie specific detergent and air to maintain fabric quality. It is not recommended to utilize a lingerie bag in the washing machine on any cycle.
- Bras: Gently pat out excess moisture with a towel. For moulded cup bras, lay them flat and use hand towels to fill the cups, shaping them as they dry. As for cut-and-sew or unlined bras, either hang them by the gore or lay them flat to dry.
- Fasten It: Always fasten hooks to avoid snagging and turn non-moulded bras inside out to protect delicate fabrics when hand washing and storing.
- Lingerie Love: To eliminate deodorant marks, use a deodorant sponge before washing. When cleaning lingerie, remember to be gentle – for stains lightly agitate with a soft-bristle toothbrush or fingertips using lingerie detergent.
Caring for Silk
Delicate and luxurious, silk deserves special attention. Gentle washing techniques and proper storage will keep your silk lingerie in perfect condition, embodying timeless elegance.
- Cool is Key: Hand wash silk lingerie in cool water to maintain its natural sheen.
- Gentle & Patient: Pat silk garment dry with a clean towel, avoiding wringing to preserve its delicate fibers. Transfer the piece to a clean dry towel and lay flat to air dry before storing.
Caring for Cashmere
Indulge in the sumptuous softness of cashmere without fear of having to care for it. Ideal washing methods and storage practices will ensure your cashmere intimates remain as a cozy, cherished part of your collection.
- Cold is Key: Opt for cold water when hand washing cashmere to prevent shrinkage.
- Roll Up: For drying, lay your cashmere flat on a towel. Carefully roll it up, preserving the garment's integrity to remove excess moisture. Then, transfer it to a clean, dry towel and let it air dry flat.
- Fold, Don't Hang: Preserve the shape and strength of your cashmere pieces by folding instead of hanging.
With these simple washing wonders, your lingerie stays as vibrant and luxurious as the day you brought it home. Because every piece deserves the royal treatment...just like you!
