Natural cloth and living dye ask for a gentle hand. Cared for simply, a Sūt garment only softens and deepens with the years.
By hand, or a gentle cold-to-lukewarm cycle, with a mild detergent free of optical brighteners and bleach. Never chlorine — and never dry clean, as the solvents dull both the cloth and the natural dye.
In the shade, out of direct sun. Sunlight and heat lift the colour from natural dyes; shade keeps them true. A low tumble only if you must, then finish flat in the air.
Press on a low heat. Store dry and folded, with acid-free tissue between the layers — an airtight box and a natural pest deterrent for the long rest.
Natural fibres relax a little at their first wash and grow softer with every one after. Woollens are the exception — never machine wash or tumble; reshape while damp and dry flat.
A garment, cut for one body only.
We hold nothing in stock. Natural fibres, natural dyes — woven for us alone.
