Tailoring

Margaret Howell works with some of the world’s finest fabric mills and tailoring factories. To ensure that you continue to enjoy the character and quality of your tailored garments for many years, here are some suggestions to keep them at their best.

• Always refer to the cleaning instructions on the care label.
• When dry cleaning, always use a reputable service.
• Avoid excessive dry cleaning, which can damage fibres and interlinings, by airing garments after wear and using a good quality brush to gently remove dust and dirt.
• Avoid over-use by resting garments between wears, allowing them to air and return to their original shape.
• Use broad shouldered jacket hangers to maintain the original shoulder shape.
• Use a good quality steamer to remove unwanted creases or hang garments in the bathroom while taking a bath or shower to allow the steam to naturally alleviate creases.
