I wash them in lukewarm water with Woolite or some other mild soap, then rinse \u0026amp; hang dripping wet in the shower.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSince these are vintage items, a bit of extra care needs to be taken with them so they remain beautiful \u0026amp; I definitely would never put a vintage nightgown or a peignoir in the dryer as it would ruin it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe items are sold as we find them.
