Simple Clothing Care Tips to Keep Your Wardrobe Looking New
Looking after your clothes doesn’t have to be complicated to be effective. Small changes such as washing at lower temperatures, using gentle detergents, and allowing clothes to air dry can help prevent unnecessary wear and tear.
With consistent care, your garments will stay fresh, well-shaped, and wearable for longer, helping you get more value from every piece in your wardrobe. In this guide, we share easy and practical tips to help your clothes last longer while staying stylish season after season.
Always Follow the Care Label
Care labels are designed to protect the fabric and shape of your garments. Whether it’s a delicate Luna dress or cosy Alpini knitwear, following washing and drying instructions helps prevent shrinking, fading, and fabric damage. Taking a few seconds to check the label can significantly extend the life of your clothes.
Don’t wash it as much to save your fabrics
Frequent washing wears clothes out faster than most people realise. Items like Luna dresses or trousers often don’t need washing after every wear. Airing garments between uses helps maintain their structure, colour, and softness while also being more sustainable.
Proper Knitwear Care
Knitwear can lose its shape if not carefully treated. Items like Alpini knitwear, ladies star and knitted jumpers are best either hand washed or washing machine on a wool cycle with delicate detergent. Laying knitwear damp and flat to dry will help it keep its shape as well as a polished appearance.
Caring for Linen
Linen is airy and classic but requires delicate treatment. White linen dungarees for example, can be kept fresh and new by hand washing in cold water and gentle soap. You can air dry and lightly iron with a slightly damp cloth as well to ensure the finish stays clean and crisp.
Store Clothes the Right Way
Correct storage also has a massive impact on clothing life. Sweaters should be folded not hung, while dresses do well with padded hangers. Use the right storage. It is important that you store your clothes in a manner that will prevent them from losing shape and quality, among other problems.
