As a general rule, you should avoid putting delicate fabrics in the tumble dryer unless it has a specific setting for this type of garment. You should also avoid tumble-drying leather and faux leather, latex, waterproof fabrics, nylon tights, and fur or faux-fur items. Most clothes come with a care label that will instruct you on whether or not they can be machine washed and dried. To be sure, always check the label.
