02/5Chiffon saree
Chiffon and georgette sarees are light and are extremely non-stretchable. Dry cleaning is the best option for chiffon sarees with embellishments. You can soak plain georgettes and wash them at home as well. However, you should keep them away from direct light and heat. You must refold them to avoid tearing your saree from the folds.

04/5Silk saree
From raw silk to kanjeevaram, silk sarees are extreme delicate and should only be dry washed. If you have to hand wash them make sure the water is at room temperature and do not use brush on them. You should store your silk saree wrapped in a muslin cloth and tucked them inside the darkest corner of your closet, away from direct sunlight. To remove particular stains, we advise you to send them for dry cleaning at the laundry.
