Special Notes
• Highest quality silk — handle with extra care
• Use a mesh bag if machine washing on delicate
Additional Care Tips
- • Dry clean only for garments — specify silk-safe solvent to cleaner
- • If hand washing, use cool water (below 30°C) with silk-specific detergent only
- • Never wring, twist, or rub — blot gently with a towel to remove water
- • Air dry flat on a towel away from sunlight — UV causes yellowing
- • Iron inside out on the lowest setting with no steam, or use a press cloth
- • Store in breathable garment bags on padded hangers; avoid plastic which traps moisture
