A beautiful formal suit is an investment, and with the right care, it can last for many years without losing
its charm. Here’s how you can maintain your formal outfits the right way:
Read the Fabric Care Label
Every suit fabric needs different handling.
● Chiffon & Organza: hand wash only
● Silk: dry clean
● Cotton & Lawn: gentle machine wash
Always follow the label instructions to avoid damage.
Use Mild Detergents
Harsh detergents fade colors and ruin delicate embroidery. Always use a gentle, fabric-friendly detergent
especially for formal suits.
Avoid Direct Sunlight
While drying your clothes under the sun may sound normal, it can:
● fade rich colors
● weaken delicate fabric
Instead, dry your formal suits in shade or indoors.
Store Embroidered Pieces Properly
Embroidered suits should be stored:
● in breathable garment bags
● wrapped in soft fabric
● away from moisture
This prevents threads, dabka, and sequins from getting damaged.
Iron Carefully
Use the lowest heat setting for delicate fabrics. For chiffon, organza, and silk, place a thin cloth over the
suit before ironing to avoid burning or shine marks.
Keep Perfumes Away
Perfumes and body sprays can stain light-colored fabrics or react with embellishments. Always apply
perfume before dressing up.
Air Them Out After Events
After wearing a suit at a dinner or wedding, hang it for a few hours before storing it. This helps remove
any odors and prevents wrinkles.
