Mohair

Mohair's airy halo is part of its character. Preserve that texture by minimising friction, using cool water and avoiding direct pressure from an iron.

The care label comes first

Construction, dye, trims and lining can change how a fabric should be cleaned. If the label is more restrictive than this guide, always follow the label.

The routine

01 · Wash

Protect the halo

Wash separately with wool detergent and minimal movement. Do not scrub, brush while wet or use fabric conditioner.

02 · Dry

Let loft return naturally

Blot in a towel, reshape and dry flat. When dry, a very gentle shake can revive the surface.

03 · Finish

Keep the iron away

Refresh with light steam held above the fabric. Direct heat and pressure can flatten the fibre permanently.

Garments prepared for considered storage

Between seasons

Keep it at its best.

Store folded with plenty of room. Keep jewellery and rough outer layers from snagging the open, delicate knit.
