Care Guide: preserving the beauty of your velvet pajamas

Velvet is a noble material, soft to the touch and deeply elegant. But like all fine fabrics, it requires special care to maintain its luster season after season. At Annabella Fashion, we take extreme care in selecting our velvets; here are our expert tips to preserve the beauty of your pajamas and enjoy them for a long time.

Washing: gentleness above all

Velvet is sensitive to aggressive washing. Opt for hand washing in cold or lukewarm water, with a mild detergent. If using a machine, choose a delicate cycle at a low temperature and place your pajamas in a protective mesh bag. Avoid intensive wringing, which can mark the fibers and alter the velvety texture.

Drying: flat and in the shade

Never twist velvet to wring it out. Gently press the fabric in a towel to absorb excess water, then lay flat to dry, away from direct heat sources and sunlight. Gentle drying preserves the depth of the color and the suppleness of the fibers. Avoid tumble drying, which could flatten the characteristic relief of velvet.

Ironing and storage

If ironing is necessary, always do so on the reverse side, at a low temperature, ideally with a press cloth or in steam mode without direct contact. For storage, hang your pajamas on a hanger or fold them gently in a drawer, away from light. A few natural lavender sachets will preserve its freshness while keeping moths away.

Things to avoid

A few simple precautions will extend the life of your pajamas: avoid repeated rubbing, never use bleach or abrasive products, and keep velvet away from perfumes and deodorants applied directly to the fabric. In case of a stain, act quickly with a damp cloth, without rubbing, by gently dabbing.

Care that endures

Taking care of your velvet pajamas means prolonging pleasure and honoring an exceptional material. With these simple gestures, your Annabella piece will retain its softness and elegance season after season. Discover our soft velvet pajamas and give them the care they deserve.
