Caring for Lace and Chiffon

Lace, net and chiffon are light and delicate, so they last longest with gentle care.

Wash by hand in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid scrubbing lace and stone work, and never wring — press the water out softly instead.

Gentle washing is the secret to delicate fabrics.

Dry in the shade, laid flat or hung loosely; direct sun can fade colour. If a chiffon scarf needs pressing, use a low heat.

Store lace headbands and caps flat or loosely rolled, so the shape and the trim stay as they were.
