Care Guide

Caring for your clothes isn't just about maintaining appearances; it's about being mindful of resources, sustainability, and making the most of what you have.

By following these tips, you can help ensure that your perky apparel or any clothing in your closet lasts for a long time:

1. Specific Care for Embroidered Clothing

  • Machine wash but set it to a gentle or delicate cycle.
  • Wash inside out -  Turn the garment inside out before washing to protect clothing with embroidery/embellishments from friction and damage.
  • Use gentle detergents -  Use a mild detergent that is suitable for delicate fabrics. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners as they can damage the embroidery.
  • Air dry -  Hang the garment to air dry, and avoid using the dryer as the heat can damage the embroidery.
  • Iron/steam carefully
  • Wash with like colors
2. Specific Care for Tie Dye Clothing
  • Handwashing is gentlest on tie-dye, but if using a machine, set it to a gentle or delicate cycle.
  • Wash tie-dye clothing separately before wearing to remove excess dye and prevent color transfer onto your skin or other clothing.
  • Opt for a gentle detergent formulated for preserving colors. Harsh detergents can cause colors to fade faster.
  • Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners as they can affect the colors and quality of the dye
3. Specific Care for Different Fabrics
  • Cotton: Wash and tumble dry on low or air dry to prevent shrinking.
  • Wool: Hand wash with a mild detergent and lay flat to dry to avoid stretching.
  • Satin: Hand wash using a gentle detergent or dry clean.
  • Polyester: Machine wash and tumble dry on low heat.
  • Denim: Wash inside out to preserve color and air dry to prevent shrinkage.
  • Linen: Machine wash and air dry or tumble dry on low.
Regularly maintaining and following these care instructions will significantly extend the lifespan and quality of your clothes.
