Silk Care
Care Instructions
- You can either use machine-wash or hand-wash to care for your silk. Wash silk separately from other fabrics.
- If using machine-wash for your silk you need to place it in a mesh bag and wash using cold water with gentle soap and softener on low settings. DO NOT SPIN. Washing at a higher temperature or using harsh detergents is harmful to the silk threads.
- Hand-washing is our preferred option. To hand-wash, place your silk in cold water and add gentle fabric soap/softener, soak for 20 minutes and rinse off with cold water.
- Do not apply friction, wring or rub excessively as silk is delicate and any rough application might damage or break its long strands.
- Shake off excess water and air dry. DO NOT TUMBLE DRY. Silk has a fast drying time. Dry laying flat or on a hanger, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
- When completely dry, use a steamer to remove wrinkles or use an iron set to the lowest setting, steaming or ironing inside-out.
Tip: When you hand-wash, you can remove excess water by pressing lightly between two towels.
