Washing woollens
Avoid letting water run from the tap directly onto woollens, as this can matt the fibre and spoil the look of the garments.
No more static
Avoid static in lingerie by wearing underclothes made of natural fabrics, or use fabric softener in the wash.

Perfect knits
When washing knitwear, avoid stretching the clothes. Never hang any knits on plastic or metal hangers. Always fold and lay them flat to help maintain their shape.
Recycle and save
Give a new lease of life to pre-loved fashions. A good alterations shop can change old collars, put splits in skirts, reshape loose dresses and make long pants into pedal-pushers. You’ll discover a whole new wardrobe!

Treat your underwear with care and increase wearability by washing and tumble drying all bras, pants, pantyhose and delicate items in cloth lingerie bags.
