Quick Tip – Velvet

If you are tempted to touch up a velvet dress with an iron, use steam only as direct contact with the iron will cause permanent damage.

Avoid direct contact when touching up velvetAlso, when ironing any fabric, check the care label for heat instructions:

  • If a high heat iron is used for a low heat item, the fabric will be damaged.
  • If there are no care instructions, use a press cloth between the iron and the item to protect the fabric.
