Care Instructions
Garment Care - The DELETTO Standard
At DELETTO, we believe that exceptional garments deserve exceptional care. Each piece we create represents generations of Italian craftsmanship and deserves to be maintained with the same attention to detail that went into its creation.
SUITS & FORMAL WEAR
Daily Care
- Allow your suit to rest at least 24 hours between wearings
- Use a quality wooden hanger that supports the shoulders properly
- Brush gently with a soft clothes brush after each wearing, following the fabric's natural grain
- Remove surface dust and lint with a lint roller before storing
Storage
- Store in our signature breathable garment bags when not in regular rotation
- Avoid overcrowding in closets; garments require space to maintain their form
- Keep away from direct sunlight which can fade natural fibers over time
- Consider seasonal storage for pieces not currently in rotation
Spot Treatment
- Address spills immediately by blotting (never rubbing) with a clean, white cloth
- Consult our client services team before attempting to treat persistent stains
- Professional dry cleaning is recommended for comprehensive cleaning needs
Professional Maintenance
- Dry clean sparingly, only when necessary (typically 2-3 times per year)
- Select a quality cleaner experienced with luxury garments
- Always inform the cleaner about the fabric composition of your DELETTO garment
- Request hand-pressing rather than machine pressing when possible
SHIRTS & CASUAL WEAR
Washing
- Review the care label for specific instructions unique to each piece
- Hand washing is preferred for our finest cotton and linen shirts
- When machine washing, use cold water on a gentle cycle
- Turn garments inside out before washing
- Use a mild detergent specifically formulated for fine fabrics
Drying & Pressing
- Air dry when possible by laying flat on a clean towel
- If using a dryer, select low heat and remove while slightly damp
- Iron shirts while slightly damp for best results
- Always iron inside out when dealing with patterned fabrics
