Care Guide

How to Care for Your Lingerie & Swimwear

Beautiful lingerie and swimwear deserve a little extra love. Follow these care guidelines to keep your pieces looking and feeling their best for years to come — and always check the label, as each brand may have specific recommendations.

Lingerie Care

• Machine wash on a gentle or delicate cycle at a low temperature (never above 86°F) — this is actually gentler on lace than hand-washing, which can cause damage through rubbing
• Always use a mesh laundry pouch to protect both your lingerie and your machine
• Use a mild detergent free of optical brighteners, especially for dark colors — never use chlorine or bleach
• Do not dry clean
• Avoid ironing; if needed, steam very carefully

Swimwear Care

• Rinse in fresh water after every wear
• Hand wash gently in warm soapy water — avoid rubbing, wringing, or soaking for extended periods
• Keep away from sunscreens and oils, which can break down elastic and fade colors
• Do not dry clean, machine wash, or tumble dry

When in doubt, check the care label — your pieces will thank you.
