Silk Brocade Fabric
How do you wash Vietnamese silk?
i recently bought a vietnamese silk brocade dress. it is a very soft light weave. in soft blues and greens. however, it came with no care instructions. how do i wash this? severaly of my other silk garments say to dry clean only, and some i can hand wash. is there a difference in the fabric that i should be aware of?
The silk garments in your wardrobe are likely to be among the most expensive and delicate items you own. The traditional approach to cleaning these items is to take them to commercial cleaners, but there is a faster and more affordable way to clean them without running the colors or ruining the fabric.
Things You’ll Need:
Clean, empty sink
Wool cleaner
Vinegar
2 towels
Large zip-top plastic bag
Refrigerator
Iron
Ironing board
Step 1:
Find an inconspicuous area of the silk fabric to test for color fastness. Use lukewarm water and a tiny amount of the wool cleaner to gently rub this small section for about a minute. If the colors appear to run, dry this section immediately and only clean this garment with the help of professional commercial cleaners.
Step 2:
Fill the sink with slightly warm water and add the appropriate amount of wool cleaner by following the directions on the bottle. Soak the garment in the water for five minutes. If there are obvious stains on the garment, rub these gently with your fingers under the water.
Step 3:
Remove the garment from the sink, drain the water, rinse the soap suds out of the sink and re-fill with cold water. Add about 1/3 cup of vinegar to the water and rinse the garment briefly in this mixture.
Step 4:
Drain the sink again and rinse the garment under cold water from the faucet until it appears that the soap and vinegar have been completely rinsed out.
Step 5:
Lay the dripping garment flat on a towel. Roll the towel up to wring the moisture out of the garment gently. Lay the damp garment flat on the dry towel and allow to air dry for about an hour.
Step 6:
Place the damp garment in the plastic zip-top bag and put the bag in the refrigerator for about an hour.
Step 7:
Turn the garment inside out and iron on low heat with gentle pressure.
*******************
Tips & Warnings :
When soaking the fabric, make sure the water is not too hot. Hot water may shrink the garment.
Do not rub aggressively when rubbing stained areas, as this can damage the fabric.
