Professional dry cleaning is the safest method for many garments, but you can refresh some clothes at home between visits. Here is what works, and when to leave it to the professionals.
What you can do at home
- Steam garments to relax wrinkles and freshen fabrics
- Spot-clean small marks gently with a damp cloth and mild soap, testing on a hidden area first
- Air out woollens and jackets after wearing them
- Use a fabric brush to remove dust and lint from coats and suits
When to choose professional dry cleaning
Dry cleaning uses specialised solvents instead of water, so fabrics don't shrink, fade or lose their shape. Our organic dry cleaning uses biodegradable, non-toxic solvents that are gentle on both fabrics and skin.
- Garments labelled "Dry Clean Only"
- Silk, wool, cashmere, velvet and leather
- Suits, blazers, sarees, lehengas and embellished wear
- Tough or old stains such as oil, wine or ink
