Normally, thread holds beads in place, but after time, much as in your home washer, those threads may break free. Most often, glue or an adhesive is used to attach sequins; however, this glue or adhesive has a tendency to deteriorate over time or even after the first cleaning.
Additionally, there is always a possibility that the fastening glue or the colour of the sequins or beads may migrate to adjacent portions of the garment. Unfortunately, there is no way to predict this result before washing the garments, which is owing to poor garment construction.
Please alert a member of the alterdry’s staff before handing over the clothing embellished with beads or sequins. Due to the danger of their falling off or being unable to withstand the heat of the process, we need the customer’s permission before processing dry cleaning in Mumbai.
