I try not to launder my clothes every time I wear a garment. If I sweat in it a lot or went somewhere where people were smoking etc, of course I’d wash it but if I can get away with it, I just put it back in my closet.
Elizabeth Anne, me too.
I wash them as little as possible and never ever machine dry them. They last longer and look nicer this way.
Depends for me. Underwear and socks are a must-soon-washes for me (after at least 2-3 days). A jeans can be worn up to 2 weeks or longer (if it doesn't get dirty at some point -food spill e.g.) for me.
A jacket very rarely (after a bar visit or such).
Just like in the olden days, I have underclothes that act as a barrier between my skin and the clothing so I mostly wash the under layer while the upper layer can be washed much less.
To make the colours always look good, I wash all the colours separately. Up to dividing pale pink and deep pink, for example. Even if I have to hand-wash several items that are one-of-a-colour. Because if you only divide into whites and colours, then the colours will gradually turn into similar darker-greyer versions.
My fiancé just found out how bad Polyester us for people to wear and now I'm realizing most of my clothes are made of Polyester. I'm now searching for these natural fibers in my clothes. Thank you for sharing!
my tip for making clothes last longer is to always air dry them and read the labels!
I do that too, wear other easily-washable shirts under my finer fabrics. Great for layering in my cold-ish climate, too.
Me too.....I hand wash and air dry (have a couple of those fold-able drying racks) lots of clothes including my work out gear so it doesn't wear out too soon.....the use of safe soap is also important so I use Woolite for lights and darks.....it makes a difference to how the fabrics survive....goodness knows we all spend so much money on clothing :-)
Dina Wiltshire yea, there's a wonderful gentle wash for undergarments at Nordstrom! (name?)...mine hold their shape and last for years!!!
Will check that out thank you :-) I found a good soap at Costco that helps keep the fibers and fabric in good shape....unless filthy dirty, a gentle cycle for most clothes, or hand washing and air drying with a quick fluff in the dryer makes all clothes survive longer and keep their colors.....have a lovely weekend Karal :-)
Your mum is wise :-) I wash my delicates inside out and pre-treat 30 mins ahead of washing if there is a stain or anything.....I so enjoy using the Woolite type soaps as they are gentle and the fibers stay in good condition....I will sometimes mix 1/2 cup of white vinegar in the rinse water to get out all residue soap....doesn't leave a smell but acts as a softner without the chemicals...
About a hundred years ago when I worked for Banana Republic, we would receive training on fabrics. Origin, care, etc., and it was immensely helpful. I’ve always leaned to natural fabrics personally. Is there anything more comfortable than a cotton tee shirt? Nice video. Thank you!
Guru Bahasa Indonesia no, but interesting...
One of my best tips is to avoid the dryer after washing. I've had so many pieces of good clothing wear faster because I was either in a rush of just lazy about proper care. Thank you for the wonderful tips, I always look forward to your videos. You are so well spoken and charming.
Alpaca and bamboo are also both wonderful natural fibres. So far I have only come across them in knitted fabrics but I agree that natural fibres are my preferred option.
"Bamboo" is viscose rayon. It's chemically processed.
But! Ramie is a fast growing nettle linen originating China, Korea, and Japan that has the actual benefits of bamboo, but without the harsh chemical processing.
Fabulous and very informative video. I have always taken to synthetic fabrics because I could wash, throw them in the dryer and go. But, since trying to create a long lasting capsule wardrobe, I have become fascinated with natural fabrics. Have you ever done a video on taking care of these particular items? If not, maybe you could think about one on how to clean each of these natural pieces. As always, I look forward to each and everyone of your videos. Great job!
I believe Audrey did a video on washing silks and cashmeres a while back? Also, Justine LeConte (another youtuber who is herself a fashion designer) did a couple great videos on fabric maintenance.
Pamela - thank you. I will look them up.
Love cotton and silk! Also modal and Tencel (natural fiber-ish)! Definitely wash in cold water whenever possible, as infrequently as possible, and air dry. ALWAYS air dry. It can sometimes be a pain to find that the shirt you wanted to wear isn't dry yet, but it makes clothes last so much longer! I unfortunately can't really wear wool or cashmere--my skin is very sensitive and even the nicest cashmere feels slightly itchy. Since I don't like having to wear an undershirt in order to wear a sweater, I stick to cotton sweaters. I have had some poor quality linen shirts in the past that turned me off linen, but I'm considering linen as an option again. It sounds like a great option for the hottest summer days (I live in Ohio).
Here's the list of best fabrics she mentioned in the video:
1. Cashmere
2. Wool
3. Silk
4. Linen
5. Cotton
the quality varies wildly within each category depending on the source, and the type of weave changes the fabric's characteristics as well as the chemical treatment applied on the cloth..
my father was a textile industrialist
I would personally cut silk out, as the production is kind of weird with animal cruelty, and I don't like the feel of silk. I turn to synthetic silk instead: viscose. Again, dirty making process, but at least there is a lot of choice in vintage viscose. Hemp is also a good fabric.
I live in the desert. Linen is my absolute summer staple. I seem to sweat in silk but may try it again in the winter.
How do you manage when it wrinkles?
@@anlla3 I try to buy the best quality of linen because the higher the quality the less wrinkles. plus linen does have some wrinkling to it. it supposed to look like that.
@@slporter722 thank you. If you don’t mind another question :), how do you tell is the best quality?
@@anlla3 Good question. I found purchasing items from a reputable store of higher end sustainable clothing works best. I have purchased linen pants from old navy and they are sufficient for day to day but last only a year and do shrink. This is my experience.
@@slporter722 that may be because old navy tends to use linen rayon blends vs pure linen?
Hi Audrey, you are aaaaamazing! I have totally changed my outlook on clothes and my life style because of you. I'm obsessed now with natural fabrics and simplifying my wardrobe and life! Thank you for such awesome videos! 👯♀️
my shopping routine has improved so much since i started watching this channel. thanks for the great info!
Thank you! Can you make a video on how you care for your leather items and jewelry
I started wearing more natural fibres because of sensitive skin and now i am moving towards most of my wardrobe staples being natural fibres because of how they feel and look. They have become my aesthetic. Like any good quality clothes, it is worth the investment because they last longer if well cared for, and they will break down and go back to the earth in the landfill, unlike some synthetics. Because I was concerned about chemicals in dry cleaning (even in my local 'environmentally friendly wet cleaning' cleaners solutions) I did some research on caring for natural fibres and found out that most wool, cashmere, silk etc actually lasts longer if you clean them carefully at home. Things like suits, blazers, winter coats that have two types of fabric--the outside and the lining--obviously are better dry cleaned, because the fabrics will shrink at different rates, and suiting wool is often a very fine weave. I just do it less and air them out really well between wearings. But a lot of single-fabric silk blouses or wool/cashmere sweaters that say 'dry clean only': well, those companies are just trying to cover themselves in case you wash it at home and do something daft like put a silk blouse or cashmere sweater in the dryer or steam-iron it at high heat. I really like Audrey's tip in another video, of putting the item you are handwashing in a bowl in the sink. Works great! Also, the Elizabeth Suzann clothing instagram page recently did a post on getting oil stains out of silk instagram.com/p/Bj50_4XAel4/?tagged=estipsandtricks
Another natural fiber that I love is rayon. It drapes beautifully and washes well. It softens in the dryer when dried on a delicate setting. Thank you for your wonderful tips! I have learned so much about style, which fits both the city and the country. Additionally, your ideas about the selection of essentials and accessories and how to care for all are so well defined that I now know what to look for, for the long-term investment. Thank you again, Audrey. Please continue on!
I wasn’t aware rayon is a natural fiber, to my knowledge it is “viscose” in the common industry .
@@iosuanca542 Rayon is considered an “in between “ fiber, originating from a natural fiber, cellulose, and then undergoing a viscous treatment.
chemicals are added to rayon which are toxic and this is not a natural fabric
Nooo... Rayon is synthetic. Don't do rayon.
@@1Corinthians15.1-4 Study rayon further.
Found this very informative. I also love natural fibers. A nice white Brooks Brothers Blouse with a pair of well fitting cotton jeans paired with a beautiful blazer = perfection. Of course a beautiful leather belt completes this classic look. I am quite a bit older than you Audrey but I have the same fashion sense because well made classic clothing looks good on a gal regardless of age. They are timeless pieces. I am 65 and have yet to purchase a Cashmere Sweater but will now have a better idea how to determine if the Cashmere is top quality thanks to you.
This is the first video of yours I’ve watched but I must say I love your descriptions and care tips of the different fibers and I love your voice it’s just so mellow and soothing. Have a lovely day! 💕
Olivia Nicole thank you so much, Olivia! 🤗🥰❤️
You have such a lovely personality 💝
Thank you for this informative video. I love your soothing voice and how you describe everything in full detail. I love natural fibers, I can’t afford them in retail stores but I love to find them in thrift stores. This past I eliminated my polyester clothes with natural fibers, love them. My jeans are only 100% cotton or 98% cotton.
Your content is usually so detailed. Love your tips
I really loved this video!! I am new to the all-things-good-quality mindset, and I was just doing some research on what good quality clothes are made of. This is sooo very helpful!!
Your way of talking and smile is so calming and relaxing , i feel much better just after listening to you , in addition to a ton of useful infos !
Soaking this all up!!! Like buying quality. With care, they keep looking great and I've had some items for 20 yrs! Good style never goes out of fashion! Looking forward to your posts!
Excellent informative video. I just picked up a gorgeous pair of black pants from Toteme , it’s 85% cotton and 15% silk. The silk gives it shine and cotton makes it keep the shape well and it’s pleasant on the body. I think it’s very important to have beautiful fabrics, because the comfortable and pleasant on the body clothes are the ones that I reach for, the most. Also, I’m a cachemire addict, thanks to your videos my love for cachemire exploded and I hunted down on the second hand market quite a few beautiful cachemire sweaters, turtlenecks and cardigans. For this type of fabric I prefer to buy secondhand because it can be too expensive to wear it on a daily basis. Mind you, that I live in Canada and our winters are notoriously long and painful. Have a lovely day and can’t wait to see your next video!
Thank you Audrey! I'm a fairly new subscriber and have found your videos to be just what I need as someone who wants to look classic and put together but with a lean wardrobe. Thank you for your great work as I make this progression in my life! ~Andrea
As a seamstress, I definitely agree with all your points - even working with natural fibers is easier, and just feels luxorious.
I have a 100% linen duvet set, and it definitely needs to be changed or washed less often than other bed sheet fabrics - even cotton!
Linen is one of my favorite fabrics for warm weather months. I always make sure to have at least one pair of linen pants and shorts to get me through the warmer weather. The best way I have found to care for my clothing is to wash them in cool to cold water (unless they are extremely soiled or have come in contact with something that would require a more sanitary cleansing cycle), and I try to never put any of my favorite pieces in the drier. I have drying racks to dry anything that needs to lay flat or may get stretched out if it is dried a different way. I utilize an unused guest bedroom closet to hang/line dry the rest of my clothes.
Great lesson. I live in Brampton (Toronto) Canada and it's usually too cold, too hot, or too wet. The stores here don't seem to sell linen and silk clothing. Usually most items are polyester or a polyester blend. Also, a lot of clothes appear to be wear and trash items. Meaning fairly cheap to buy and after a few wearings rather than waiting time and energy on washing you just throw it out and buy something new. I am trying to upgrade my wardrobe with better classic items and having great difficulty in finding clothes. No, I do not like internet shopping. I prefer to walk around the malls, seeing, touching and trying clothes on. But, I won't give up looking yet. Thanks for the great video.
I enjoy ur videos..mostly because ur style is simple,chic and classic. Also because your voice is very calming.
Living in Southern California, cotton is my favorite in the hot summers! I like to hang a shirt or jacket by an open window in my bedroom to freshen it.
I really love your videos. Very refreshing content. . 💕💕
Like you Audrey, I love the natural fiber fabrics...especially wool and cashmere. I have found in recent years how that the fabrics used in the construction of many ready to wear garments has diminished in quality...even in the better brands. I often find vintage items are better constructed with nicer details. Now that you have me wear the monochrome top and pants with a blazer that pops...I have found that the thinner wool vintage blazers work well even in the summer as the fabric "breaths". Since I am in air conditioning when I go out, these jackets work great even in Alabama heat. Thank you Audrey for helping me to dress better!
PS - Once you sleep on 100% cotton sheets you realize how great cotton is! That poly/cotton, bamboo, and the so-called "micro-fibre" sheets are terrible......
Yay!! I was looking forward to this video!! Instant click!
Thank you Audrey, so useful to have this information when I next shop 👍 🇬🇧❤️xxx
I also like to air dry many of my items - depending on which fabric of course. I learn so much from your videos - I keep the "bell" on so I never miss a video. Your hair is so beautiful - please never cut it - it frames your face so well. I got a small diamond necklace like you have but I had to return it as I thought it brought attention to the lines in my neck. I'm 63 and nature has taken it's course. I just love it on you!! Deb :-)
Audrey I LOVE LINEN TOO! I am new to your channel. So far I am inspired to recognize what works for me. Next, I hope to rid myself of bargain buys that really do nothing for me.
I have always avoided so my of these natural fabrics well thank you for this overview. I am comfortable looking for, wearing and caring for these items. I’m in Dallas and In the summer I love wearing One World maxi dresses because I just wash them and air dry them and now wrinkles and I tend to just wear sandals and less jewelry. It’s just so very hot here in the summer months.
thank you so much for sharing as I haven't bought clothes in such a long time didn't feel the need to because I had a job that require me to wear jeans and a t-shirt so I have pieces since 6 grade and now I work in an office environment and would love to buy good basic pieces I can wear for a lifetime
I hate clothes shopping, so I try to buy long lasting pieces, so this is very informative! I keep a smaller wardrobe myself...and you have a very soothing presentation!
Same the older I get the more I hate buying more clothe
Thank you for educating me! As I am replacing my wardrobe (it’s severely OLD lol), I want to purchase fewer items that will last a long time. I appreciate this video and also the one where you shared how you take care of your clothing using the Laundress products instead of dry cleaning. I really enjoy your channel!!
That is the way to go! Higher quality and more natural materials
Tip: Its important to Read the labels.
Wash all your clothing in gentle wash cycle (unless you work in construction or your clothes get Really dirty, no point on use regular/rough wash).
Jeans can be used many many times w/o washing. Use them, flip inside out and dry 'em with dryer balls or cloths fragance (febreze) they come out refreshed and ready to wear. 👍 Love your channel i just subscribed.
Always so interesting..I’ve learned so much!
your voice is sooooo calming!
Wonderful information as always. Thank you for sharing.
Ditto on cashmere being self cleaning. I have a heavier cashmere sweater that I wear every other day during the winter months, and I have to wash it about 3 times per season
Wonderful video as always sweetie....I too, love natural fabrics....I used to own a Raw Silk coat and dress....fabric is almost rough silk but with such beautiful texture and character....difficult to find the fabric anymore and given my sewing skills unable to order fabric to make anything.....the 100% silk blouses are now priced so very high that I shall have to save up a bit for one......but love natural fibers....Hugs pretty girl...
Thanks, Audrey, loved the tips. I will take you shopping with me.
Great information, thank you!
This is a very helpful video. Thank you! 😊
Thank you , Very informative .
Thank you for this video. I recommend it to my students who study English to become translators. The language and tips are absolutely precious.
We have very hot summers here in Melbourne Australia. I'd like to buy a linen dress. Thank you for the tips.
Thanks so much for this video, Audrey! I think one of the best things working women can do for themselves is learn about fabrics. The more we know, the better we can shop, invest in, and care for those garments.
SmidBeach and hold their good looks!
Very helpful. We try to make our garments last longer by air drying mostly everything. Mostly everything, not socks or particular undergarments.
Thanks for all this valuable information. I am very interested in this fabric breakdown information.
Thank you for this really informative video... It would be great to know yr favourite brands in each category of fabric as well.
Great content! I love, love, love silk! It always looks good! Cotten - yes! Wool- too hot in Texas, except in the rarest of winter's. (Or part of that might just be my body these days!) 😕 Nice when visiting cold climates, though. Like Canada or Alaska in spring, or San Diego anytime other than deep summer! 😏Well done❣
Very informative. Thank you!
I live in Colorado so I loooove cashmere. I have 4 high quality crewneck cashmere sweaters that are on constant rotation in winter. I usually wear a tank underneath for layering, then my sweater, a scarf and a jacket/coat. I find cashmere keeps me comfortably warm and I don’t swelter when I’m indoors where most public places are overheated.
What brands you prefer?
Giedre Dunn hi 👋 I got all four of my sweaters from Nieman Marcus at the end of the year when the have a remarkable markdown. The tags just say “Nieman Marcus The Cashmere Collection”. If I recall, they are marked down to $120.
Momma Bear Thank you!
Love this video as well as all your videos! Would you mind giving some names of stores or labels that you recommend to find some good quality items?
Fab video Audrey, thank you! Some great tips here which I will take note of. By the way, your hair is looking lovely. Have you taken to styling it again? Maybe you could give us an update on your new hair ritual? X
I agree, that air dying is the best, especially for anything with elastic. The dryer is very hard on elastic and shortens its life. I am plus size and would love any advice on shopping for plus size clothes.
Rebecca Mubireek I would love advice on this topic too.
Rebecca Mubireek & Mary Elizabeth, I'm plus sized as well and here are a few tips I can offer you. Never try to over-size your outfits. By this I mean don't buy big, bulky outfits to try to hide your body. Don't buy anything that's too clingy either. You should have just enough room to be flexible. A good foundation garment is essential, since it keeps everything nice and smooth under clothes. If you're bigger on top, stay away from fabrics with huge prints and if you're bigger on bottom, do the same. Darker colours are great for camouflaging areas we don't want to draw attention to. A-lines or single panels can be flattering but avoid anything with too many gores as they tend to make us look wider. Any outfit that is knee length or mid calf benefits from a shoe with a slight heel and pointed tip, it gives the look of length to the body. Accessories shouldn't be too tiny as they look lost on us, so go with medium to large pieces. If all else fails,.just Google plus-sized models and see what might interest you. We're not just limited to dark colours that tend to hide us, we can wear bold, bright colours as well. 😊
Nikki Royal good advice!
karal guidubaldi, thank you 💜
Nikki Royal Also, being well endowed, a substantial bra is a must!!! It won't cut, supports comfortably and makes your clothes fit so nicely. They LAST!!! Must care for properly. Woacol fits nicely for me, but you have to try one that works for you!
So informative. Could you do a video on what you think are the best brands high street and high end for each of these fabrics? I think it would be a cool series and I trust your opinion :)
I love comfy, cozy cashmere 😍. Great tips Audrey! Thank you. 👍
Marisol Pearls me too, although with this heat I cannot imagine wearing any at the moment😂
To care for delicate fabrics and my most loved garments I personally dry clean, hand wash, and machine wash with cold water followed by hang dry overnight. I try to avoid the dryer at all cost.
Awesome information
Your video is soo interesting! I would like to buy a classic wool coat like yours, but my skin can't tollerate wool or cashmere. Is there another heavy natural fiber? It's very cold there in winter!
Thanks to everyone who will help!
Organic linen and silk tanks from Eileen Fisher are a must.
Audrey! You were just a baby! I love this
I love cashmere and cotton, too. I want to love linen...but the crushed look puts me off!My tips: I don't hang my best wear out in the direct sun to dry, at the end of a season, I make sure everything is clean and put it away in storage boxes (with camphor for winter wear). In Japan, because of the humidity, silverfish are a big problem...and they LOVE cashemere and 100% wool!!!!!
I love bamboo and modal fabrics, Also I find elastaine in fabrics more comfortable
excellent video!
I found a vintage wool coat. What's the best way to clean it other than spending a fortune at the drycleaner's?
I used to like 100% cotton jeans when I was a teenager. (in my late twenties now). Back then, skinny jeans were on trend and everyone said spandex is good and I should wear jeans with higher percentage of spandex. I couldn't agree, so I kept my taste but I felt so awkward. I guess I felt like an outcast. I mean, I couldn't find what I wanted in the market and I had to fit myself into the clothes all the time, if you know what I mean.
I wish there was less of the haul videos and more of these videos in South Korea as well, which actually help broaden my taste and build my style. (and for the teenagers who can t watch English videos)
Oh and I wish there were videos about the tips on finding good cotten clothes. I love cotton, but good cotton is so hard to find. "100% cotton" on the tag doesn't tell me much. I hate it when cheap white shirts twist after a cycle in the washing machine. Wondering if there are tips that you have!
and thank you for the nice videos :D
Very informative, thank you! I've been wanting to make my wardrobe more sustainable after learning about the negative effects of synthetic fibres and how terrible they are for the environment AND ourselves.
Currently busy detoxing my closet and looking into sustainable clothing options, but it's hard being a college student and also wanting to live sustainably because the world basically thrives on cheap, unsustainable and harmful things. Basically, my only option is to explore thrift shops and hope I get something worthwhile. But I'm fine with that if I can help out the environment and myself ultimately :)
Yes! Thank you Soph, that is exactly the way to go. Ive been trying to raise awareness on this, but its been lonely. See my channel if you're interested... The whole world is drowning in a sea of plastic and toxins and nobody is doing anything about it!
very useful!!!
Thank you!!! 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you so much!
Great video Audrey! I live in Charleston also and I was hoping you could recommend a good consignment shop? Thank you!!
Great video!
Also, do you have a video on brands that are high quality maybe not so much of a high price tag? I have to learn frugality on a fixed income 💁🏻♀️
What do you think of 98% cotton and 2% elastane used as a fabric to make a blazer?
How do we know whether our cashmere and wool are cruelty free?
Thanks you! Can you recommend brands that sell good quality wool and cachemere*
I wash my clothes with Woolite, using cold water, in a gentle cycle setting. I never dry my clothes in the dryer! Instead, I hang my clothes to dry and the iron the wrinkles.
Thank you for the informative video as usual! Having worked in retail many years ago I have definitely seen the fabric quality diminish. Do you have any good retail recommendations for finding that perfect shirt? One that has structure and front and back seams? I cannot find anything like that anywhere. I definitely am not a fan of boxy shirts that just hang there! Thank you in advance.
Ileana: At a variety of qualities and price points, you may find properly fitted women's shirts at Brooks Brothers, Hawes and Curtis, New York and Company, eShakti (made to your measurements, and not too expensive!) J. Crew, Ann Taylor, Campbell & Kate (especially if you're busty and your shirts tend to gap at the chest) and Talbots.
I'm thinking of trying E Shakti. Do you have any experience with them? thanks
Yes, I do, Yani Lat. I haven't ordered shirts, but I have at least 7 dresses and a few pairs of pants that I've had made by them. I usually have the length adjusted, as well as the sleeve style and the depth of the decolletage, and I've been very pleased with the results. I love that they have little details--like loops with snaps to hold one's bra straps out of sight--that make their pieces feel so well thought through. The price is fair, in my opinion. My tailor charges a lot more for hemming and taking in a waist!
I’ll wear a very lightweight under shirt when wearing cashmere or any other wool to prevent the fibers getting soiled when perspiring.
And avoid the bad deodorants! They destroy our clothes...
What kind the fiber is good for coat, i got one yesterday and I got itchiest, it made wool and polyester
CASHMERE CASHMERE CASHMERE CASHMERE! And wool pants. I went to college in Iowa (I'm from southern california. I know, I know) and cashmere saved my little frozen butt a thousand times over! I also love that when I started curating my work wardrobe, cashmere sweaters were easy to incorporate because they look professional to begin with. It's expensive for college students, but they're well worth the investment, esp if you can find them second hand (but also if y'all are spending money on the large natasha denona palettes/coachella, cashmere is a better investment). Lolol
I love wool and cashmere but unfortunately I have eczema so they’re not options I can choose 😔 I stick to cotton as much as I can as a result, which is fine as it’s machine washable and good to wear year round
Sorry to hear you can't wear cashmere. I tend towards eczema too, and while I have to be careful with wool, I've found I can tolerate good quality cashmere. What I've learned is that sometimes what is called 'cashmere' actually has other fibre content in it, and it is the other fibres that make it more itchy. For me, silk, linen, and bamboo, tencel or modal are often good options.
I can typically tolerate merino wool for my eczema! Especially wool socks!
@@shutupsavannah2195 wool socks saved my feet for long distance running. I used to get horrible blister on my toes until I switched to Smartwool socks.
Where did you get your necklace from? Its so elegant.
Can Audrey or anyone else tell me how to take care of wool blazers? I am afraid of moth holes.
Thanks for nice video...
the best video ever! 👍 I prefer natural fibers in clothes...
Hi, do you think sesame has good quality wool coats. I’m looking for one I can have for a few years
What if cotton comes into contact or is blended with polyester? For example, if cotton or linen sheets are laid on top of a polyester mattress?
Would the cotton frequency I am in contact with change?
My navy linen blouse bled out after the first wash. Cheap quality?
Thank you for these tips and information before I start the video.
