Caring for your luxury English Fine Cottons clothing.

A little TLC goes a long way if you want your luxury clothing to look their best for longer.

• The first rule is – wash your cotton garments sparingly.
• If you need to freshen-up a n item you’ve only worn for a few hours, give it a quick steam or put in in the dryer on the no heat setting just to fluff it up. But remember, heat from a tumble dryer will almost certainly shrink your cotton clothing.
• Wash your clothing at 30°C – if the heat’s too high, it’ll probably shrink.
• Wash by hand if you have time, using just a little mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners – your English Fine Cottons clothing doesn’t need it and it’ll only clog-up the fine fibres.
• Treat stains properly – and as soon as you can – before washing. But don’t use bleach.
• Always sort your laundry before washing – be sure you don’t accidentally bung your lovely white tee in with the jeans!
• It’s a good idea to wash your clothes, particularly your luxury cotton items, inside out – it’ll help stop the fabric from bobbling (pilling).  Using a delicates bag can also help protect your clothing.
• If they’re air dried flat or hanging up, they probably won’t need ironing if you gently stretch them back into shape as soon as they come out of the washing machine.
• If you do want to iron your luxury cotton tees, press using a very low heat or alternatively, use a steam machine – steaming is gentler on the fabric and will plump-up the fibres of your cotton clothing without flattening the surface.
• Always iron or steam your tees inside out.

Top Tips

HEAT is your cotton clothing's worst enemy – either from water that’s too hot or the tumble dryer.

Using BLEACH on your cotton clothes is also a no-no.

Use DETERGENT sparingly and avoid FABRIC SOFTENER altogether.

Wash your clothes INSIDE OUT.
