How to maintain your suits?
Our best tips for your suits...
Maintaining a suit isn't just about taking it to the dry cleaner. There are indeed several things you can do yourself to keep your suit in good condition for as long as possible.
One of the things to keep in mind is the hanger. To ensure that your suit doesn't lose its shape, opt for a rather thick hanger that is suitable for your suit. Avoid metal hangers and don't stack your suits. 1 hanger = 1 suit.
To space out dry cleaning visits, favor airing out your suits. On a hanger, air out your suits in the open before storing them to prevent them from retaining too many unpleasant odors.
It is also important to brush your suit from time to time using a soft natural bristle brush. You can also use a lint roller to remove all dirt such as hair, fur or lint.
Avoid using an iron and prefer a steamer if it has unsightly wrinkles.
If the suit is not part of your work attire, it should be carefully stored away once the occasion to wear it has passed. If your suit is about to spend a long time in your closet, favor storing it in a garment bag and leave the zipper slightly open to allow the fabric to breathe a little.
Of course, dry cleaning cannot be avoided for a complete cleaning of your suit.
