Always machine wash your garment in cold water and lay flat to dry — this will keep your color looking fresh and will prevent your garment from shrinking.
You can’t avoid wrinkling silk (trust us, we've tried! it’s a natural occurrence in 100% of all silks), but if you’re feeling stressed about those wrinkles, there are some easy ways to get your garment looking smooth:
- Use your getting ready time as double duty and hang your silk in the bathroom while taking a steamy shower.
- Use a steamer for a garment that’s smooth as silk (literally) in no time at all.
- Simply toss the (already dry) item in the dryer for a few minutes on low heat fluff cycle.
