 Mistakes to avoid when washing designer clothes at home

Your designer clothing is precious. You have worn them on occasions and have been wowed by your choice. It is the centre of attention and a matter of pride that you carry it with you. Now, every effort is made to maintain this masterpiece for your next catwalk. But then, one fine day, you notice that the sequins are off, the floral design on the dress is peeling, and overall, the fabric is damaged. This is primarily due to the mistakes we make when washing designer clothes at home. 

Check with Laundrybox for expert designer clothes washing in Dubai.

Dodge these mistakes when washing your designer clothes at home. 

Harsh detergents: Using strong detergents and dish soaps on expensive, delicate fabrics can strip them of their original texture and colour. Always use milder and specific detergents meant for the purpose. 

Spot tests: Test the detergent you are using on a small spot on the dress to see if the fabric can withstand its strength. Don’t skip this test.

Care label: Incidentally, the care label on your dress speaks volumes. The manufacturer has provided instructions for maintaining your clothing. Ignoring this is generally a costly mistake. 

Hot water: A delicate fabric needs delicate washing and gentle water treatment. In the race to remove stains and restore its shine, we tend to use water at high temperatures, which can lead to damage to the fabric. 

Dryer: Another expensive mistake is to tumble dry your designer clothes – again, subjecting them to dry at high temperatures can only lead to damage.
