Care Guide
Luxe Alpaca
With the right care, your Luxe Alpaca pieces will remain soft, structured, and beautiful for years.
Washing
Hand wash only, in cool water with a gentle detergent made for delicates. Do not machine wash.
Drying
Always lay flat to dry on a clean towel or drying rack. Reshape gently while damp. Never tumble dry or wring.
What to Avoid
No bleach, fabric softeners, or dry cleaning solvents. No ironing directly. Steam gently if needed.
Storage
Fold and store flat. Never hang knits, as this stretches the shoulder. Keep in a breathable bag between seasons.
About pilling: some light pilling is normal for natural fibers, especially in high-friction areas. Use a fabric shaver gently to restore the surface. Alpaca is naturally pill-resistant, so the surface recovers well and stays looking new with gentle care.
