Ancost creates timeless garments designed to be cherished for years to come. Caring for your Ancost pieces with attention and delicacy ensures their longevity, allowing you to enjoy them for longer. By taking proper care of your garments, you also contribute to reducing the environmental impact of fashion. At Ancost, we use a diverse selection of premium fabrics and intricate details, each requiring special care. Please refer to this guide to help you care for your garments appropriately. Always check the specific care instructions on the garment label for the best results.

SILK 

Silk is a very delicate fabrication and care should always be taken when worn. Removing your jewellery before dressing is a great way to ensure pulls are not formed in the fabric and to preserve its condition. Store your silk in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Avoid storing silk fabrications in plastic as these fabrics need to breathe.

LINEN 

Linen is a very durable fabrication that improves and softens with wear. Due to the relaxed weave of linen, the face of the fabric is generally textured and natural variations or ‘slubs’ may appear. Slubs maintain an organic look and are a natural characteristic of the fabrication. Thanks to its durability, linen is the perfect ally to create a wardrobe of timeless pieces made to last. Store linen fabrication as flat as possible to reduce wrinkles and creases.

KNITWEAR 

Cashmere and delicate yarns require specific care. Avoid allowing these fabrics to come into contact with harsh surfaces to reduce pilling. Always store your knitwear in a cool, dry, dark place and store as flat as possible. Avoid storing your knitwear on a hanger as this can cause stretching, this includes crochet styles.

DENIM 

Increase the lifespan of your denim by washing only once every few wears. Increasing the number of wears between washes helps reduce the environmental footprint of denim throughout its lifetime by cutting down on water and energy use. Ancost Cygne denim may be washed separately, inside out in a cold machine wash with mild detergent unless otherwise stated on the care label. Liquid detergent is recommended.
