Scarves – A Saving Grace
ā¢ A scarf not only looks great and serves as an outfit making fashion accessory, but it can protect your garments, especially expensive coats, leathers, furs, etc. from make-up stains, neck perspiration and body oils.
ā¢ So even if you donāt consider yourself a āscarf personā rethink your position. Indulging in the luxury of this accessory is also protecting your most treasured garments.
ā¢ Finally, when you bring your scarves into your drycleaner, be sure to request hand finishing, itās the best method for hand rolled hems.
Taking Care With Your Scarves
ā¢ Donāt leave your scarf knotted after wearing it.
ā¢ Do not pull or tug on the knot to loosen it. Gently reverse the procedure you used to knot it.
ā¢ Do not iron a scarf that youāve already worn to press out āknotā creases. The heat of the iron will permanently set any invisible (ex. Tannin) stains that may be present.
ā¢ If the scarf was stained during the course of wear, take it in promptly for cleaning and request hand finishing. Itās the only method to preserve the ārollā in a hand rolled hem.
