Caring for Silk and Lace, the Easy Way

Silk and fine lace last longest with a gentle hand wash in cool water and a pH-neutral wash. Five minutes of soaking, a soft press — never a wring.

Dry flat in shade, away from radiators and direct sun. Heat is the enemy of silk's lustre and elastane's stretch.

Washable-silk pieces can go in a mesh bag on a cold delicate cycle. Rotate what you wear — fabric, like skin, lasts better with rest.
