TAKE CARE OF YOUR LOVERS
All Love Stories items are artfully crafted from premium materials so that you can enjoy them for as long as possible. Once your new loves end up in your lingerie drawer, proper care will help secure a long-lasting affair. Here are some easy tips & tricks to clean and protect your items.
TAKE CARE OF YOUR LOVERS
Before washing your padded bralette, make sure you take out the padding first. If you leave it in, the padding could fold which could change its shape. Wash the pads separately and put them back in the cups when dry.
- Always follow the instructions on the care label for each product.
- Washing in cold water (no warmer than 30°C) is better for the environment and better for your garments.
- Use a laundry bag to protect your delicate intimates & swimwear when laundering in the washing machine.
- Our cover-ups can be gently ironed back into shape after washing. To remove minor wrinkles, hang your garment in the bathroom whilst you shower. The forthcoming steam is usually enough to smooth out most fabrics. Or use Attirecare’s Crease Release spray to remove wrinkles.
- Do not put your Love Stories products in the dryer. This could damage the material and the elastane will lose its stretch.
- Don’t let your lingerie dry in the sun, this might change their colour. This doesn’t apply to our Swimwear, so you can sunbathe for as long as you like.
HOW TO WASH SILK
Silk is a luxurious, high quality fabric which needs a little more care and attention. Because of this delicate material, you shouldn’t put your silk items in the washing machine or iron them. Wash your garments by hand with a maximum temperature of 40°C and use a laundry detergent specifically for silk.
HOW TO WASH SWIMWEAR
Our swimwear can be washed in the washing machine, in a washing bag, with a mild process and a maximum temperature of 30°C. After a swim, rinse your swimsuit with cold water to remove any salt or chlorine before washing it.
