Kachina 624: Thank you so much for explaining about your great results in laundering the new blazers and trenches at home. I totally understand why you are laundering "new" items from QVC. I live at the far northern border of the US and there literally is NO dry cleaner closer than a couple of hours drive. I won't be opting for that and it is wonderful to know that if I spill something on one of my new blazers that I can actually do them in the washing machine and hang dry and have great hopes for a good outcome with minimal steaming . Thanks for those encouraging words. Your input is greatly appreiated!

Why was I brave? The instructions on the labels say to machine wash. I have washed enough of his items to know how they hold up. I have his faux suede items including the anorak jacket that have washed beautifully.
I think I will keep my tips to myself in the future, though. Hugs to the Linea ladies who are always very kind.
Please don't. Not everyone who reads this forum is ignorant. I found your information very reassuring and helpful. Thanks for that.

Thank you, @TheOwl. I was the original poster, not Kachina. Thank you for your very nice note. I appreciate your kindness.

The past few years the awful odors on new clothing has become a real issue to me. I went shopping with my granddaughter this past weekend at a huge outlet mall. I was amazed (and grossed out) by that awful chemical smell permeating many of the clothing stores....I couldn't imagine working there and smelling that all day.

Here is a link to "Intelligence for Life" where Connie Selleca gives some reasons for washing new clothes before wearing them.

IMHO, I am unable to press as well as the cleaners. Each is own.

@Fair Lady , thank you. I worked with someone who caught scabies from jeans from a secondhand store! It appears that qvc irons returns before sending them out again which hopefully kills creatures.
