Women’s Shirt Care Guide

A bespoke women’s shirt is a foundation of effortless elegance. Proper women's shirt care maintains the sharpness of the collar, the delicate strength of the seams, and the vibrant quality of the fabric. Follow these steps to preserve the fit and longevity of your garments.

Everyday Care & Storage

• Unbutton all buttons, including the cuffs and collar, before hanging to prevent unnecessary tension on the threads and fabric.

• Hang your shirt on a high-quality wooden or padded hanger to preserve the natural line of the shoulders.

• Use a garment steamer for a quick refresh between wears to relax minor creases without applying direct heat.

• If using an iron, ensure the shirt is slightly damp and use the appropriate heat setting for the fabric. Always avoid ironing directly over buttons to prevent damage.

• Allow the shirt to air out in a well-ventilated space before placing it in the closet to prevent moisture from becoming trapped.

Cleaning

• Professional laundering with a "no starch" or "light starch" option is recommended to maintain the soft, premium feel of the fibers.

• If washing at home, use a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent to prevent shrinkage and preserve color depth.

• Pre-treat collar and cuff bands with a gentle stain remover to address body oils and prevent discoloration.

• Never use bleach, as it weakens the natural fibers and can cause yellowing over time.

• Air dry the shirt on a hanger rather than using a tumble dryer. High heat can shrink the fabric and damage delicate stitching.

Preserving the Bespoke Detail

• Remove any removable collar stays before cleaning or ironing to avoid leaving permanent impressions on the fabric.

• For shirts with French cuffs, remove cufflinks immediately after wear to prevent snagging or stretching the buttonholes.

• Store white shirts in a dark, cool environment to prevent natural oxidation and maintain their crisp brightness.
