Ready-to-wear care tips

Gabrielle Chanel’s talisman and the name of the House’s first fragrance, the number 5 holds a special significance at CHANEL. Here are 5 steps and tips to remember in order to preserve your CHANEL garment.

Jacket, dress, knitwear, trousers, blouse… each CHANEL garment carries within it the values of elegance and modernity defined by its creator. To preserve its look, get into the habit of not spraying perfume, hairspray, or other cosmetic products directly onto it. Certain materials, such as silk, chiffon, satin, or cashmere, are inherently delicate: be sure to fasten and unfasten your jewelry with care and avoid pulling too hard on the fabric.

Your CHANEL garment was crafted with the utmost expertise and the greatest care from rigorously selected materials. To preserve its colors, avoid prolonged exposure to natural or artificial light during storage. Similarly, do not expose your garment to humidity for extended periods.

We advise you to read and follow the care instructions specified on the labels. If you stain your garment, entrust it promptly to a professional cleaner. After dry cleaning, be sure to remove the plastic cover and air the garment thoroughly before storing it.

Generally speaking, it is preferable to store your garments in an airy, temperate place to preserve their beauty for as long as possible. In your wardrobe, you should keep garments with highly contrasting colors and different materials separate.

Whether you wear it regularly or not, and also depending on its care, your garment will evolve over time. Each day, it will reveal a new facet of its beauty, its history… and your own.
