The thought of not knowing how to care for your expensive designer pieces shouldn’t affect your decision to own that runway dress (the one with the precisely placed ostrich feathers that you’ve been eyeing for a while). Yes, the dress will probably come with a vague care tag that merely mentions “Dry Clean Only” and no, you cannot send it to the dry cleaning service that takes care of our day-to-day basics. For the embroidered Valentino gown or that Roberto Cavalli coat with multiple exotic furs, you need someone who knows the difference between couture and ready-to-wear.
To put your mind at ease (and because we can’t bare the thought of inept hands handling beautiful designer pieces), we’ve found garment care specialists that will not only solve your dry cleaning dilemmas but also repair your expensive leather handbags and shoes, and restore your fine furs and party gowns. Your couture will never have to suffer again.
