Hello, fashion lovers!👋
How have you been? Are you having a stylish and winning autumn?
Every season has its unique sense of style, purpose, and appearance, and one striking, acceptable sense of balance is that no matter the piece, look, or appearance, every outfit has to be tended with care and love.
No matter the beauty, style, or essence of your outfit and wardrobe, creating that sense of fashion appeal largely depends on how you maintain and care for your outfits.
At David Scott, we believe your style doesn’t end when you make your purchase, but continues with how you care for and treat each outfit and your wardrobe as a whole.
This piece explores 7 of the best smart, fashion-winning laundry tips to help your wardrobe feel and stay crisp, clean, and ready to sparkle all season long.
Let's dive in!🥽
Wash Less, Wear Longer: I know this may not appeal to many of you, but washing your outfits after each wear shouldn’t be a culture you should imbibe. Yes, washing is important, but not every item demands a full wash after each wear.
Try to implement airing out your outfits, like knitwear, trousers, and jackets, which helps to extend their lifespan and maintain their fabric quality.
Store Outfits Properly After Cleaning: You never go wrong with proper storage. The culture of implementing great storage techniques like carefully folding knits to prevent stretching, hanging structured pieces on quality hangers, and keeping your outfits away from moisture to preserve freshness and quality are great cleaning techniques to maintain your wardrobe.
Use Mesh Storage Bags for Delicate Items: Proper storage is the winning strategy in building and maintaining a refreshing autumn wardrobe.
Exploring the use of high-quality and durable mesh laundry bags helps to protect lightweight outfits like tops, cashmere, and premium fabrics from unnecessary stress and discomfort during washing.
Turn Clothes Inside-Out Before Washing & Ironing: Ever had your outfits look dull and faded? One unique way to keep your outfits and wardrobe looking fresh and crisp is to turn them inside out before washing and ironing, which helps to maintain their quality, color, texture, and prints from friction and fading.
Choose Cold Water for Most Fabrics: You know that relaxing, calm feeling that cold water gives you when it runs down your body? That’s the same effect that freezing water has in preserving and maintaining the quality of our outfits and wardrobe.
The essence of cold water washes helps to reduce shrinkage, keep colors richer, and protect sensitive fabrics, thereby giving your autumn wardrobe a longer, fresher, and more refined life.
Use Gentle, Fabric-Specific Detergents: Each outfit material requires its own detergent to wash and keep it clean. Endeavor to use the right detergent at a proportional rate to carefully wash your outfits so they come out clean and fresh.
Skip the Dryer for Important Fashion Pieces: Not every outfit needs to be air-dried in your washing machine. There’s so much value you can enjoy in naturally air-drying your outfits, which helps increase the lifespan of your products, integrity of the fabrics, prevent shrinkage, and keep your silhouettes looking sharper, especially for knitwear, trousers, and tops during this season.
From using the right dry-cleaning detergents to intentionally air-drying your outfits, these fashion laundry tips will keep your outfits clean and your autumn wardrobe sparkling and refreshed.
At David Scott, we’re about empowering you to look and feel your best from your first wear to your hundredth.
