How to protect the fabric that has dressed empresses for six centuries.
Use cold water and a pH-neutral silk detergent. Never use regular laundry detergent — the enzymes break silk fibers.
After rinsing, lay the garment flat on a clean towel and roll it gently to absorb water. Press, do not twist.
Hang-drying stretches silk. Lay flat in shade, away from direct sun which yellows natural fibers over time.
Silk loses shape on hangers. Fold with acid-free tissue and store in a breathable cotton bag.
Iron inside-out while slightly damp, on the lowest setting. Use a pressing cloth — direct heat scorches silk instantly.
“If you spill wine or coffee, blot immediately with cold water. Do not rub — silk fibers weaken when wet and agitated.”
