Only wash by hand. Avoid the wringing, spin-drying or trumble-dry in order not to ruin the Elastane. Then hang it up and dry it in the shade like this it dries very quickly.
Recommendations :
Silk is a natural and noble material and if it’s well looked after it will improve with time.
And continue to delight you.
Washing : Silk is very fragile so hand wash only in soapy lukewarm water using a soft soap or a special silk shampoo.
Soak for 3 to 5 minutes in lukewarm water. (For dark or printed silk wash uniquely and quickly in cold water. Never soak !).
During this time move the tissue lightly from front to back. Once the silk is wet act with prudence as the silk is more fragile when wet.
Rinsing : After a maximum of 5 minutes in the water remove the silk and wash in cold water, adding a few drops of alcohol vinegar or a sugar to the cold water so as to remove the remaining soap traces. Then rinse.
Drying : Place the silk on a towel and roll, pressing lightly so that the towel will absorb the water. Then remove the towel and gently unroll the silk.
Silk will not tolerate wringing. To dry just stretch flat on a towel.
Ironing : silk is ironed face down and slightly damp with the iron at a very low temperature !
Silk will not tolerate high temperatures. Silk is similar protein wise to hair.
Drying flat is often enough so there is no need to iron.
Recommendations :
Leather is a natural and living product. This kind needs very little looking after.
For simple cleaning or maintenance, place a knob of baby oil on a soft cloth which is clean and dry. Apply it gently in a circular motion. Repeat the action taking care to turn the cloth. Leave to dry naturally in the shade and then polish lightly with a soft cloth which is clean and dry.
