How to Take Care of Fine Lingerie

Are you worried that your recently bought underwear may not survive constant washing? Do you know that you can maintain the quality of your fine lingerie by cleaning and storing it properly? With the tips below, you can be sure it will pass the test of time and last longer.

  1. Ensure to hand-wash your underwear to keep them at their best
    Your lingerie pieces will not do well if you want to clean them with your washing machine. Instead, it is advisable that you do it by hand. While observing that, make sure to separate them to avoid color transference. If need, et a day for cleaning them.

  1. Avoid hot water when cleaning undergarments
    Imagine you have washed your expensive lingerie set only once, and now it is wrinkled, and the fabric is breaking. It will disappoint you knowing how special you took it right from the purchasing point. To keep your special linen in shape and quality for a long time, you should never wash them with hot water. Additionally, only use gentle hand-washing detergents for soaking and then rub them gently.

  1. Clean them yourself
    It may sound weird that there are people out there who let others clean their underwear. Ensure that you are the one doing the cleaning all the time. After all, you are the one who knows their value and so will handle them with care.

  1. Hang lingerie
    When storing your luxury lingerie, you can hang them. Delicate pieces such as chemises and silk bras may do well with hanging. If not, you can secure bras using their clasps or laying them flat.

  1. Spoon your bras and fold undies
    Store bras in a spooning position. This will have their cups spooning one another. For thongs and other light pieces, lay them flat.

  1. Dry flat women’s lingerie
    It is advisable that you dry any underwired bra in a flat pattern. This will allow them to retain their shape. You can hang smaller pieces such as thongs and briefs instead of ironing them.

  1. Read the manufacturer's label
    Lastly, do not ignore the designer's labels on your undergarments. Women's undergarments, like any other clothing, have a designer label advising on how they should be cleaned, dried, and stored. Follow the instructions, and you will not have trouble with the pieces serving you for a long time.
