Silk is a natural material that requires gentle care. Improper washing can cause loss of shine, fibre damage, or unwanted stains.
Always hand wash silk in cold water (max. 30°C) with a mild detergent specifically designed for silk. Gently rinse the fabric, do not scrub or wring it.
If you wash in a washing machine, use the delicate fabric program, low spin speed, and a laundry bag. Skip the fabric softener as it could weaken the fibres.
After washing, let the silk dry naturally – hang it in a shaded area and avoid direct sunlight and radiators. If necessary, iron it inside out on a low temperature and through a thin cloth.
If you follow these rules, your silk clothing will retain its beauty and quality for many years.
