The Right Way to Care for Your Satin, Cotton Silk & Georgette Outfits
Share
Owning timeless pieces in satin, cotton silk, or pure georgette is a feeling every woman deserves. These fabrics drape beautifully, feel luxurious, and add that touch of elegance we all love. But to keep them looking as good as new, they need a little extra care — not rocket science, just a few gentle habits.
Whether you’ve just picked a dreamy coord set from Rang & Saar’s Summer Escape collection or that stunning ethnic drape for a wedding function, here’s how to keep your outfits perfect — wear after wear.
✨ 1. Satin: Handle with Smooth Love
Satin has a soft, glossy finish that gives it that glamorous touch. But it also tends to snag and wrinkle if not treated right.
Do’s:
-
Always hand wash satin or choose the delicate cycle in cold water.
-
Use mild detergent – strong chemicals can dull the shine.
-
Steam instead of ironing directly. Or iron inside-out with a cloth over it.
Don’ts:
-
Avoid wringing or twisting.
-
Never dry in direct sunlight — it can fade the sheen.
Pro Tip: Store satin in a breathable cotton bag to avoid yellowing and dust buildup.
🍃 2. Cotton Silk: A Blend of Tradition & Ease
Cotton silk is where tradition meets comfort. It's airy, soft on the skin, and perfect for Indian summers — but it does need care to retain that silky softness.
Do’s:
-
Prefer dry cleaning for embellished or rich cotton silk pieces.
-
If washing at home, use cold water and gentle detergent.
-
Dry in shade and avoid hanging heavy outfits to prevent stretching.
Don’ts:
-
Don’t bleach or use hot water.
-
Don’t scrub stains harshly — blot gently instead.
Pro Tip: Iron on a low setting and always iron inside-out to protect the fabric.
🌬️ 3. Georgette: Lightweight, Not Care-Free
Flowy, sheer, and ideal for layering — georgette outfits are delicate darlings. They move like a dream, but their fine threads can wear out quickly with rough handling.
Do’s:
-
Always hand wash or dry clean georgette pieces.
-
Gently soak in cold water with a drop of baby shampoo.
-
Lay flat to dry or hang on a padded hanger.
Don’ts:
-
Avoid squeezing or wringing.
-
No tumble dryers or high-heat ironing.
Pro Tip: Roll instead of folding georgette outfits to avoid creasing.
