Maintenance of linen garments

– Wash linen garments at a maximum temperature of 40°C by hand or in the washing machine (short, gentle wash and spin programme). For the first wash only, we recommend water at 30°C. Do not use detergents containing chlorine and avoid bleach for coloured linen. Elegantiskai.lt’s garments are made from softened natural linen, so it is likely that the fabric will shrink minimally – just 1-2% – after washing.
– We recommend that you straighten your washed and still damp linen, hang it on a hanger or stretch it horizontally and leave it to dry, but don’t over-dry it, otherwise it will be difficult to iron. Avoid direct sunlight when drying.
– The unique structure of the linen fabric means it wrinkles quickly. To avoid this, do not overload the washing machine or wring linen clothes before drying.
– Iron with a hot iron while still wet on the wrong side (to avoid shine), moisturise with steam, use special ironing products.
– Linen garments become softer, softer and less wrinkled with each wash.
