Eco-Style

Buying eco-fashions is a great way to reduce your environmental impact and cleaning them at Flair with biodegradable GreenEarth can keep them soft and further reduce your carbon footprint.  Eco-fashions use familiar fabrics that are all-natural, organic, or recycled, and new fabrics like bamboo.  To preserve their look and wear, it’s important to know if sustainable fabrics require dry cleaning.

  • Bamboo:  Dry clean anything made from 100% bamboo to avoid shrinking.
  • Organic Cotton/Hemp:  Dry clean delicate and items such as blazers and dresses.
  • Linen:  If the linen has not been treated with wrinkle-reducing chemicals, it should be dry cleaned.
  • Organic wool:  Dry clean almost all wool items.
  • Recycled polyester:  Dry clean suits, dresses, and other dressy items, as well as any polyester item that is filled with down.

If you have questions, simply bring your garment to Flair – we’re here to help.
