Care & Instruction

We believe that proper care ensures the longevity and maintains the aesthetic appeal of your cherished garments and accessories. To help you preserve the quality of your Lwnix purchases, we've compiled these care and instruction guidelines. Please refer to the specific care label attached to each item for the most accurate and detailed instructions.

General Care Guidelines for Apparel:

• Read the Label: Always prioritize the care label sewn into the garment. It provides specific instructions tailored to the fabric composition and construction.
• Gentle Washing: When machine washing, opt for a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water to prevent shrinkage and color fading.
• Mild Detergents: Use a mild, pH-neutral detergent. Harsh chemicals and bleach can damage fibers and alter colors.
• Separate Colors: Wash dark and light colors separately to avoid color transfer.
• Avoid Overloading: Do not overload your washing machine, as this can prevent proper cleaning and cause unnecessary wear and tear.

Drying with Care:

• Air Drying: Whenever possible, air dry your garments by laying them flat on a clean surface or hanging them on a non-rusting hanger away from direct sunlight. This is the gentlest method and helps maintain the fabric's integrity.
• Machine Drying: If machine drying is necessary (refer to the care label), use a low heat setting. High heat can cause shrinkage, damage fibers, and fade colors. Remove garments promptly once dry to prevent wrinkles.

Ironing with Precision:

• Check the Label: Always refer to the care label for the recommended ironing temperature.
• Use a Clean Iron: Ensure your iron plate is clean to avoid transferring any residue onto your garments.
• Iron Inside Out: For delicate fabrics or items with embellishments, iron them inside out to protect the surface.
• Use a Press Cloth: For sensitive materials like silk or wool, use a press cloth (a thin cotton fabric) between the iron and the garment to prevent scorching or shine.

Storage Matters:

• Clean Before Storing: Ensure garments are clean and completely dry before storing them to prevent mildew and insect damage.
• Proper Hanging: Use appropriate hangers for different types of clothing (e.g., padded hangers for delicate items, sturdy hangers for heavier garments). Avoid wire hangers, as they can distort the shape of your clothes.
• Folding Knitwear: Fold knitwear instead of hanging it to prevent stretching.
• Protect from Light and Dust: Store clothes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Consider using garment bags for special occasion wear or items you don't wear frequently.

Specific Care Instructions by Material (General Guidelines):

• Cotton: Generally machine washable in cool to warm water. Can be tumble dried on low heat. May require ironing.
• Linen: Machine washable in cool water on a gentle cycle. Air drying is recommended to maintain its texture. Can be ironed while slightly damp.
• Polyester: Machine washable in cool to warm water. Tumble dry on low heat. Resists wrinkles but avoid high heat.
• Silk: Often requires hand washing in cool water with a mild detergent or professional dry cleaning. Air dry only and avoid direct sunlight. Iron on a low setting with a press cloth.
• Wool: Hand wash in cool water with a mild wool-specific detergent or professional dry cleaning. Lay flat to dry. Avoid agitation and high heat.
• Denim: Wash inside out in cold water to preserve color. Tumble dry on low or hang to dry.
• Blends: Follow the care instructions for the most delicate fiber in the blend.

Care Instructions for Accessories:

Jewelry:

• Store in a dry, airtight container or jewelry box to prevent tarnishing.
• Avoid contact with harsh chemicals, perfumes, and lotions.
• Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth. For more thorough cleaning, consult a professional jeweler.

Bags & Wallets:

• Store in a dust bag when not in use to protect from dust and scratches.
• Avoid overloading to maintain their shape.
• Clean spills immediately with a soft, damp cloth. For specific material care (e.g., leather, canvas), refer to product details or consult a professional cleaner.

Scarves & Shawls:

• Follow the care instructions based on the material (silk, wool, cotton, etc.). Hand washing or gentle cycle is often recommended. Air dry flat.

Belts:

• Store hanging or lying flat to prevent creasing.
• Avoid over-tightening to prolong their lifespan.
• Clean leather belts with a leather conditioner as needed.
