Insulating and breathable, wool retains up to 80% air, making it an excellent thermal regulator.

It absorbs moisture, is naturally elastic but remains sensitive to heat, and can shrink if poorly maintained.

Machine wash: Suitable if wool is mixed with another fiber. Choose a “wool” or “delicate” program, with a special wool detergent and, if desired, fabric softener. Use a net or cover to protect the garment. Limit washing to preserve its properties.

Hand wash: Ideal for 100% wool or fine gauge pieces. Wash in cold or lukewarm water, without rubbing or pulling, and do not soak for too long. Rinse gently until the water runs clear. Never twist: gently squeeze into a towel.

Dry cleaning: Not recommended unless specifically mentioned on the label.

Drying: Dry flat, in the open air, away from sunlight to avoid yellowing. Tumble drying is prohibited. To wring, wrap the garment in a towel and squeeze gently.

Ironing : Iron inside out, at low temperature (110°C), with a damp cloth or damp cloth to protect the fiber.

Conservation : Store your folded wool pieces flat, never on a hanger. Remember to protect them from moths.

Merino wool or virgin wool

Merino wool is the finest wool available, from the breed of sheep of the same name, while virgin wool is wool from living, healthy sheep or lamb. These wools are soft and do not scratch. They can retain a natural wool scent over time. Merino wool and virgin wool are finer than wool, so they are more delicate to wash than wool.

The treatments applied to merino wool and virgin wool are the same as those applied to wool, favoring hand washing.

A precious, fine and silky animal fiber, cashmere is renowned for its softness and warmth. Fragile by nature, it requires delicate maintenance to last.

Machine wash: Prefer washing in a mesh or protective cover, on a cold wool program (max. 30°C) with a special wool detergent. Never add fabric softener. Gentle spin at 600 rpm max.

Contrary to popular belief, machine washing is often preferable to hand washing, because it is more regular and less aggressive. Wash as little as possible to preserve the fiber.

Hand wash: Possible in cold water, with a small dose of wool detergent. Wash without rubbing or wringing. Rinse gently, then wring out in a terry towel, rolling the garment. Never twist it by hand.

Dry cleaning: Not recommended: cashmere needs water to maintain its suppleness. In case of difficult task, one-off professional cleaning is possible.

Drying: After spinning, reform the sweater then dry flat, away from the sun and any heat source. Tumble dryer prohibited.

Ironing : Iron inside out with a warm iron, always with a slightly damp protective cloth. Avoid ironing the ribbed edges to preserve their elasticity.

Conservation : Pilling may appear at first: remove them gently by hand or after a few washes. Store folded cashmere, in a cover if possible. Watch out for moths, who love them.

Leather is a living, natural and authentic material. Its irregularities (scars, grain variations) are normal and testify to its quality.

Over time, your rooms may relax. To restore their hold, iron them inside out at low temperature (max. 110°C), without steam, with tissue paper between the leather and the iron. Don't squeeze too much.

Storage: Store in a fabric cover, in a dry place, protected from light. For bags, slip tissue paper inside to preserve their shape.

An eco-responsible fiber made from wood pulp, Tencel is appreciated for its softness, fluidity and resistance. To preserve its qualities, gentle maintenance is essential.

Washing: Wash cold or at 30°C max, on delicate program. Use a gentle detergent without bleaching agents and avoid fabric softeners. Wash inside out, with a light spin (600 rpm max).

Drying: Avoid the dryer. Dry in the open air, in the shade, flat or on a hanger to limit wrinkles and protect the color.

Ironing : If necessary, iron at low temperature, with steam or protective cloth. Tencel is easily steamed or hung in a damp room.

Storage: Fold or hang in a dry place, protected from moisture.

With these simple steps, your Tencel jeans will maintain their fluid look, color and softness over time.

A noble fiber from the Angora goat, mohair is light, warm, foamy and not very prone to felting.

Washing: Hand washing is recommended, in cold or lukewarm water, with a special wool detergent. Do not rub, do not soak. Machine washing is possible but not recommended: use a cold wool program, with a protective cover.

Dry cleaning: Not recommended for this fiber.

Drying: Dry flat, in the open air, on a towel. Never use a dryer. To wring, gently roll in a towel without twisting.

Ironing : Gently iron inside out with a damp cloth, at low temperature.

Conservation : Store your folded pieces flat, protected from moths. Avoid hangers to preserve their shape.

Alpaca is a fiber from a mammal close to the llama. It is a very high-end fiber, softer, warmer and more resistant than sheep's wool.

The washing treatments applied to alpaca are the same as those applied to mohair.

Natural fur (mink, fox, weasel, etc.) is often removable from clothing. Delicate, it requires special care.

Washing: Fur cannot withstand water: never machine wash it. If it gets wet, shake it gently to remove the water, then let it air dry. If there is a stain, call a professional.

Cleaning: Avoid classic pressing. Entrust your fur to a specialist, the only one authorized to preserve its texture and flexibility.

Conservation : Store it in a cotton cover, never in a plastic cover, in a cool, dry place, away from light and heat. Leave enough space around to avoid crushing the hairs. Avoid perfumes, sprays or aerosols nearby. A visit to a professional once a year is recommended to keep the fur soft and shiny.

A plant fiber from the cotton plant, cotton is supple, light, soft to the touch and very absorbent.

Easy to maintain, it remains one of the most versatile textiles in the wardrobe.

Washing: Cotton is easily machine washable, ideally at 40°C maximum, “cotton” cycle.

Use a suitable detergent: liquid for colors, powder for white.

Dry cleaning: Useful for embroidery, beads or delicate tasks. Cotton tolerates solvents well: take it to a professional if necessary.

Drying: Cotton can be tumble dried up to 80°C. For fine or decorated pieces, prefer gentle or air drying.

Ironing : Cotton can be ironed up to 200°C, with steam if necessary. To preserve the material, choose a medium temperature and always iron inside out.

A plant fiber extracted from the stem of the plant, linen is cool, absorbent and perfect for summer. It naturally regulates body temperature. More rigid than cotton, it gives clothes with a less flexible fit, but very breathable.

Washing: Linen can be machine washed at a maximum of 30°C, using detergent suitable for the colors. For knitted pieces, choose a delicate cycle and place them in a washing cover for added protection. Hand washing is also possible, with liquid detergent and gentle rubbing, without pulling on the mesh.

Dry cleaning: Recommended for delicate or embroidered pieces: entrust them to a professional.

Drying: Linen can be tumble dried at low temperatures, but air drying is ideal, especially for knitwear. Dry flat to avoid warping.

Ironing : Ironing slightly damp linen at high temperature (up to 220°C) with steam makes it easier to remove wrinkles. Ironing on the reverse side recommended to preserve the material.

Made from cellulose (wood, linen, etc.), viscose is a semi-natural fiber also called “artificial silk”. Soft, absorbent and luminous, it is also fragile, especially when wet.

Washing: Wash viscose cold, on a delicate program. Turn the garment inside out, place it in a washing bag and use a mild detergent. A “cardboard” effect when it comes out of the machine is normal: the fabric regains its suppleness when drying.

By hand, use cold or lukewarm water, without twisting or rubbing: viscose is very sensitive to traction when wet.

Dry cleaning: Recommended to limit the risk of shrinkage, especially on delicate pieces.

Drying: Forbidden in machines. Dry on a hanger, in the open air, without wringing: the fabric must be handled with care.

Ironing : Iron while still slightly damp, at low temperature (around 110°C), preferably with a damp cloth. It is at this stage that the viscose regains its shape and fluidity.
