Your vintage treasures deserve a little extra love to keep them looking fabulous for years to come. Here are our top tips for caring for your finds from Peach Vintage Clothing:
-
Gentle Washing: Avoid the washing machine for delicate fabrics. Hand wash items with mild detergent or use the gentlest machine cycle with cold water.
-
Air Dry Always: Heat can damage vintage fabrics, so skip the dryer. Lay pieces flat or hang them to dry naturally.
-
Store Smart: Use padded hangers for delicate items and fold heavy knits to prevent stretching. Keep them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
-
Handle Stains Wisely: Spot clean immediately with gentle products. If in doubt, consult a professional cleaner experienced in vintage fabrics.
-
Mend with Care: A missing button or loose seam? No problem! Tackle small fixes yourself or take them to a tailor to keep your pieces wearable.
Caring for vintage clothing isn’t just about preservation; it’s about honoring the craftsmanship and history of each piece. Treat your wardrobe like the treasure it is!
