TAKING CARE OF YOUR PIECE
Simple steps to preserve its fabric, cut and finishes over time. Every CLÉCLÉ creation has its own particularities. Find here the advice suited to your piece, and always refer to the guidance on its composition label.
Which piece would you like to care for?
Before you begin
A few precautions will help your garment keep its look for longer:
- always check the label sewn inside the piece;
- wash garments inside out when washing is allowed;
- avoid any direct contact between the iron and buttons or piping;
- take pieces that need dry cleaning to a professional;
- let the dry cleaner know about any buttons and delicate finishes.
The guidance on the label always takes precedence.
