Tips on Caring for Your Silk Lehengas
These tips are not only for silk bridal lehengas but for other silk clothing too.
- Most probably, you will not need to wear your bridal lehenga just after your marriage but it's better to get it cleaned before you store them in the cupboard. First wash should be dry cleaning- yes a little expense for very expensive bridal wear.
- In the years to come, when you will wear your silk bridal lehnga, you will not be able to dry clean it after every instance. So, wash it with mild detergent having a pH below 7- those which you use for your woolens.
- Never twist or wring out this delicate fabric. Hand wash, preferably in a sink by gently swirling the cloth.
- Press water gently and hang dry.
- When ironing, set the iron on the lowest heat (silk setting or rayon setting where silk is not indicated).
- Place a piece of light fabric on the ironing surface and then place the silk lehenga right side down on top of the fabric. It will absorb the excess heat from the iron.
- Before you start ironing, test a small, out of sight area of your silk lehenga to make sure that the heat will not damage the fabric. Set the iron's heat at further low point if you see any harm being done to the silk fabric.
- Let the silk cool when you finish ironing.
- Store the lehenga separately in the cupboard wrapped in a soft cloth like muslin cloth.
- Ensure that the cupboard is moth free.
Now when you know the tricks of saving your silk lehenga, go ahead and buy one but before buying just read Why Silk Bridal Lehengas are Liked by All, not only to know the reasons of their popularity but also to know what harms can be done by silk lehengas and how to choose the right silk bridal lehenga for you.
