These fabric care suggestions are provided as a general guide for the convenience of our customers. Because materials and dyes vary between manufacturers and products, we do recommend that you follow their specific instructions - and to test a sample before washing or dry cleaning the entire garment. Acetate: Dry clean only.
Linen: Dry cleaning is recommended because it retains the original crisp finish to the fabric. But, hand washing in mild soap with no chlorine bleach and drying flat on a clean non-colored towel is also o.k. Note: Hand washing does soften the feel of the linen which is sometimes preferred.
Rayon: Dry cleaning is recommended, although hand washing in lukewarm water is okay. No chlorine bleach allowed. Lay items flat on a clean non-colored towel to dry.
Silk: Dry cleaning is preferred. Hand washing is possible if mild soap and lukewarm water is used.
Suede: Recommendation is dry cleaning. Although Machine wash gentile cycle is allowed.
Wool & Suiting: Recommendation is for dry cleaning. Can be spot cleaned with a damp sponge. Hand washing is NOT recommended here.
