Extraordinary garments demand extraordinary
care.
From intricate beaded and sequined gowns to one-of-a-kind
handmade garments, from modern to vintage, the delicate nature of
these pieces dictates the utmost scrutiny, respect, care and
attention to detail.
A true quality cleaner will excel in their understanding of
exquisite fabrics, unusual textures and special trim and
embellishments. And in their knowledge of the art of design and the
craftsmanship of construction.
Specifically, a true quality cleaner will:
- Inspect each garment as it arrives. Carefully. From inside to
outside. Paying particular attention to the fabric fibers, fabric
textures, fabric finishes, dyes, trim and embellishments, and
construction.
Determine the best and most appropriate cleaning
techniques, processes and solutions. All stains receive immediate
attention.
- Remove all fragile buttons, trim, embellishments and ornaments
wherever practicable. Prior to cleaning. And reattach the same
after hand finishing the piece.
- Perform minor repairs before the actual cleaning process begins
(such as reinforcing loose beads and sequins). And again should it
be necessary during the inspection process.
- Hand finish every garment. Delicately. Both inside and out. The
old fashioned way. Using a hand iron. With an appreciation of the
nuances and subtleties of the couturier's sensibilities.
- Inspect every garment. Carefully and thoroughly. From top to
bottom. From inside to outside.
Package every garment. Individually and elegantly.
To ensure that they are protected during transportation and
short-term storage.
From Chanel and Michael Casey to Oscar de la Renta and Christian
Lacroix, you can trust a true quality cleaner with all your couture
garments.
