While washing fine fabrics by hand or in the gentle cycle will help maintain your garment's appearance, your choice of laundry detergent is also important. First, pretreat these stains by gently rubbing in a product developed specifically for fine washables and let it set for about 10 minutes. Immerse the blouse in warm water with a rich layer of suds. Squeeze the sudsy water gently through the blouse for about five minutes, rinse and pat the blouse with a clean towel to remove excess moisture. Hang the blouse on a plastic hanger and allow to dry away from direct sunlight.
Gloves Always check manufacturer's instructions.
If your gloves are hand washable, follow the instructions below. But do not attempt to wash gloves you have previously dry cleaned because the natural oils are removed from gloves by dry cleaning. Never wash your suede gloves or leather gloves with fur lining. To wash your leather gloves, use warm water and rich suds. Work the sudsy water through the leather.
