When one purchases a beautiful, better quality, a little out-of-your-budget garment one wants to take care of it with special care. Here are tips for properly maintaining your fine purchase:
1. Wash `Alone: This is not the time to multi-task by mix your special garment with your kids jeans or husbands shirts. Wash alone or similar!
2. Use Special Care Detergent: Use a detergent such as Woolite or Caldrea Lavender for Delicates.
3. Wash in Delicate/Hand Wash Cycle. If not sure of specific water temperatures, etc. take a look at the Caring for Your Clothes 101 Tool.
4. Hang Dry or Lay Flat AWAY FROM SUNLIGHT to avoid shrinking. If the garment is a Sweater or Jersey blend DO NOT HANG as they will stretch and lose their shape. If hanging, try the new Tide Smart Dry Hanger which reduces shoulder puckering and dries the garment faster through its special air vents.
Unless your garment has major B.O. or scent of bar (think Deep Eddy Cabaret), spray your garment with Febreeze, allow to air dry, then place back into your closet. Your garment will be ready to go for your next event!
