Washing: Less is More


Clothes made of plant fibres and botanical dyes are not only good for your health, they're better for our planet too.


Their breathability means you don't have to wash them every time you wear it. Airing them out every night after a day of wearing them in the city naturally cleans it. You can also hang them in your bathroom to naturally get steamed when you are under the shower.


In case of stain, proceed to clean the stain immediately with mild soap and water locally on the affected areas.


When you want to wash them, we recommend hand wash with cold water. While dry cleaning is a safe option, hand-washing them reduces energy use, is better for the environment, and also prolongs their life.

Preparing the laundry

  1. Make sure clothes are turned inside out.
  2. Separate by colors to avoid color-ins.

Material guide

  1. Dry clean your silk (Tencel Silk blend, Silk Organza) pieces as water makes them more fragile and prone to staining.
  2. Raw, undyed handwoven cotton is machine washable.
  3. Hand wash dyed handwoven cotton to avoid color fading.
  4. Hand wash or dry clean Tencel fabric to avoid lint and fuzziness.
  5. Avoid soaking naturally dyed fabric for longer than three minutes.



Drying


Line drying is the best way to dry your clothes. Aside from consuming a lot of energy, dryers are harmful to your clothes and could lead to fading. Opt for a shady area outside to minimize exposure to direct sunlight.



Pro tip

Long silk dresses should be prepped before line drying. These steps are meant to reduce their water weight and hence the risk of damage:

  1. Lay flat on a clean towel.
  2.  Cover with another towel.
  3. Apply pressure to remove excess water.

Gentle Detergent


Conventional detergents contain harsch chemicals such as chlorine, optical brighteners, sulfates, petrochemicals, synthetic colors, phosphates, parabens, and artificial perfumes which are rough and could damage gentle fabrics.

To care for your delicate fabrics, opt for gentle, pH neutral detergents such as hand soap and shampoo. You can also use natural soapberries that are biodegradable and do not pose risks to grey water.
