Winter in Macau isn\u2019t particularly long, but come November and December, as soon as the north wind starts to blow, it\u2019s time to dig out the down jackets, overcoats and jumpers from the back of the wardrobe. Many people only realise this when they open their wardrobes: the coats they put away last year have a musty smell, yellowed collars, or even small black spots. In fact, the problem usually stems from \u2018not washing them properly before putting them away\u2019 and \u2018Macau\u2019s humid climate\u2019.<\/p>\n
Winter clothes are usually worn only a few times a season, and many people simply put them away as long as they don\u2019t look \u2018dirty\u2019. However, invisible sweat stains, sebum and food residues on the garments will gradually oxidise and turn yellow after a damp spring and summer, and will also provide a breeding ground for mould.<\/p>\n
Some down products labelled as machine-washable can be washed at home, but it is by no means easy:<\/p>\n
If you are unsure, it is best to leave it to the professionals. We will select the appropriate dry-cleaning or wet-cleaning method based on the garment\u2019s care label and fabric, and ensure it is thoroughly dry before returning it to you.<\/p>\n
