✨ Why Saree Care Matters
Sarees are more than outfits—they’re investments in elegance. Whether it’s a delicate organza saree or a rich silk bridal drape, proper care ensures they last for years and retain their beauty. Here are easy, expert-backed tips to help you protect your favorite pieces from wear and tear.
🧼 1. Washing Your Sarees the Right Way

- Silk Sarees: Dry clean only. Never wash silk at home to preserve the sheen and structure.
- Cotton & Handloom: Gentle hand wash in cold water with mild detergent. Avoid wringing.
- Organza, Net & Georgette: Use a mild liquid detergent. Hand wash with light strokes; never use hot water.
Tip: Always wash sarees separately to prevent color bleeding.
🧴 2. Avoid Harsh Chemicals
Never use bleach or harsh stain removers. For spot stains, use a mild soap solution and dab gently with a soft cloth. For designer sarees with embellishments or zari, opt for professional dry cleaning.
🪶 3. Proper Saree Storage

- Fold Correctly: Refold every 3–6 months to avoid permanent creases or fabric weakening.
- Use Cotton Bags: Store in muslin or cotton saree covers to allow the fabric to breathe.
- Avoid Plastic: Do not store sarees in plastic as it traps moisture and can cause yellowing or fungus.
Bonus Tip: Add neem leaves or silica gel sachets to repel insects and humidity.
🌬️ 4. Air Your Sarees Occasionally
Especially for silk and heavily worked sarees, take them out every 2–3 months to air under shade. This prevents moisture build-up and keeps the fabric fresh.
💨 5. Steam Instead of Ironing

Avoid using a hot iron directly on delicate fabrics. Always iron on the reverse side or use a press cloth. Steamers work best for organza, net, and other fragile materials.
