Leather clothing amazingly transforms a woman! Even if a mature lady puts on a leather skirt, jacket or sundress, she will seem to become younger. And what can we say about young fashionistas! Especially this season, when leather clothing has become one of the main fashion trends. Modern natural and artificial leather is well-made, pleasant to the touch, and beautiful in appearance. It fits well into a woman's wardrobe and is appropriate in different styles and situations.
One thing bothers me: such products cannot be thrown into the drum of a washing machine to freshen. And while ladies have learned to cope with caring for leather uppers, some have problems with the lining. In fact, it's not that complicated. We will tell you how to properly care for her.
Why does the lining need special attention?
Is it necessary to do lining at all? This question sometimes arises even among the most careful housewives. And indeed, no one sees it except the owner of the clothes. But this approach is wrong!
The lining absorbs sweat and stains may appear on it.. But even if they are not there, skin microparticles remain on the material. As they accumulate, they can cause irritation on the body. And the realization that you are wearing dirty fabric does not bring pleasure.
But pollution may also be accompanied by odor! In general, everything we wear requires regular care. Including the lining of leather clothing.
The difficulty in care is that skin is a rather sensitive material. And water is undesirable for her; it requires special handling.
Advice. If the clothes are heavily soiled, it is better to go to a dry cleaner to process your clothes using modern technologies.
And we will tell you how to refresh the fabric yourself without separating it from the leather base.
Cleaning the lining
If you have a favorite leather item in your wardrobe, you will have to keep it in order regularly. A special dry cleaning product will be a good helper.. For example, Hagerty. Dry Cleaner Kit, DRYEL, etc.
When choosing a product Pay attention to several characteristics:
- Compliance of the preparation with tissue, from which the lining is made.
- Method of use. Please note whether the product can be machine washed. If you often have to remove stains, for example, from children's clothing, it will be more profitable to buy such a product.
- Does it contain aggressive substances?. You need to be careful with these products, otherwise your lining may change under their influence.
- Are there fragrance additives?, transmitted tissues. Perhaps you have individual preferences for scents.
When using dry cleaning products the manufacturer's recommendations for its use should be strictly followed. This will help maintain the quality of your clothes.
Advice. You can refresh the lining using environmentally friendly natural substances: soda, talc, starch. They are applied to the fabric, left for a while, and then thoroughly cleaned.
Washing the lining
Wet processing of the fabric is also possible. The lining should be washed very carefully.
- Turn the product inside out and hang it like this on a hanger.
- Soak a clean cloth or sponge in the soapy water and wipe the lining.
- Be careful not to wet your skin.
- Wipe with a cloth soaked in clean water.
- Leave the clothes to dry completely.
As you can see, keeping trendy clothes clean is not difficult at all. After these simple manipulations, you will look great in fashionable leather items. And you can feel the same way.
