Cashmere Care

Hand washing is the best way to preserve your cashmere's luxurious quality (follow our easy step-by-step instructions below). If you prefer a hands-off approach, dry cleaning is also an option.  

Follow our washing instructions to maintain your garment’s pristine condition and ensure its
prolonged life :

1. Wash: We highly recommend washing your Altesse product by hand. In lukewarm water, using a mild detergent or baby shampoo, let your cashmere garment soak for 15-20 minutes.

2. Rinse: Drain the soapy water and rinse your cashmere garment with clean lukewarm water, swishing gently and repeating with clean water until the detergent is gone.

3. Press: Remove the water by lightly pressing your garment into a ball. Be gentle while pressing. Avoid wringing the garment. The reason being is that when the fibers are wet, they are weaker and you therefore risk damaging and disfiguring the garment.

4. Dry: After removing the excess water, air dry the garment by laying it flat on a drying rack or on a clean towel. This will help ensure the garment maintains its natural shape. Do not place in dryer as it is known to shrink cashmere garments.
