Materials
SILK
Hand Wash or Dry Clean
Hand washing dry clean your silk are the best practice. Silk is a naturally delicate fabric and should be worn and washed with extra love and care. We recommend filling your sink or tub with lukewarm water and a small amount of delicate silk wash. Use your hands to gently clean the garments and make sure you rinse thoroughly. Avoid twisting or wringing the fabric and be sure not to use hot water as this treatment can harm the delicate fibers causing pulls.
Machine Wash
Can your silk be machine washed? The short answer is yes. While we only recommend hand washing, if you trust your machine's "delicate" or "hand wash" setting this is a good option if you don't have time to hand wash. Water should be tepid or cold. We recommend washing at no higher than 30c as anything hotter can make the fabric harden, become brittle and can tear more easily.
Air Dry Your Silks
Silk should be hung to air dry. Be sure you use soft hangers or padded hangers. Keep your silks away from direct heat and sunlight. Once dry, silk should be ironed using low heat or steamed to restore the sheen and softness to the fabric.
ORGANIC LINEN
Cool Wash or Dry Clean
Our linens can be dry cleaned, hand or machine washed on a delicate cycle only. Be sure to use mild detergent. We recommend using cold water with similar colours for best results. Cold water will also help to avoid colours fading.
Iron or Steam
We aslo recommend ironing or steaming our linens. If ironing linen it is best when the garment is damp. We recommend pressing straight out of the wash while it's still damp, or if the piece is already dry, dampen it using a spray bottle filled with water.
ORGANIC COTTON
Cool Wash or Dry Clean
Our cottons can be dry cleaned, hand or machine washed on a delicate cycle only. We recommend using cold water with similar colours for best results. Cold water will also help to avoid colours fading.
Iron, Steam or Tumble Dry
You have the flexibility to safely iron, steam, or tumble dry our organic cottons, provided you handle them with care throughout the process.

to suit any occasion. We love when you can throw on an outfit and go
anywhere with confidence and ease. We want to make it easier for women
to buy well and buy less. Team our linen shirt with a bikini on the
