Ironing delicate fabrics requires a gentle touch and the right know-how. From silk to lace, here are our top tips to ensure your delicate garments remain damage-free and beautifully pressed:

Silk

  • Always use the lowest heat setting on your iron. Place a thin cotton cloth between the iron and the silk to prevent direct contact. Move the iron quickly to avoid burning or leaving marks.

Lace

  • Due to its intricate patterns and delicate nature, lace should be ironed using a pressing cloth. Ensure the iron is set to a low temperature, and always iron on the reverse side to maintain the fabric's texture.

Chiffon

  • This lightweight fabric can be easily damaged by high heat. Use a low setting and a pressing cloth. It's also beneficial to iron chiffon while it's slightly damp to achieve the best results.
