Couture Cleaning
Couture garments aren’t just clothes- they are investments. Protect you haute couture with our fastidious dry cleaning. Often, couture garments are of mixed-media and require special attention to detail. Our gentle “green” dry cleaning will ensure that your custom couture wear maintains its integrity.
Our couture is dry cleaned just as we treat a wedding dress. This full cycle simply cradles back and forth, helping prevent broken buttons, missing buttons, loose sequences, etc. We hand finish our couture garments to ensure they look spotless.

baby
Baby Items
Baby items, such as bumpers, crib linens, baptism gowns, and some clothes need to be dry cleaned to keep them looking new.
For the safety of your baby, you should choose green dry cleaning to keep dangerous chemicals such as perchloroethylene (PERC) out of your baby’s home.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency have identified PERC as a probable cause of cancer. You do not want chemicals lingering in your baby’s bumper, crib linens, and clothes.
bed
Bedding
The main reason a dry cleaning label is typically found on bedspreads is because of color and fiber filling. Special care is needed because fiber filling may bunch up in a washer forming clumps in the batting as well as pulling and breaking threads.
Color-fastness in bedspreads is another concern. In some bedspreads, dyes are not stable and a washing machine could case bleeding of color and/or fading or splotching.
Bedspreads should be cleaned at the same time with like bedding pieces. We suggest that matching bed skirts and shams be dry cleaned together. This way any color changes, however minimal, will be uniform.
leather
leather & suede
Suedes and leathers require special expertise for proper care. Suedes and leathers need to be reconditioned periodically to ensure that suedes don’t fade and that surface wear doesn’t develop on finished leathers due to dryness. Smooth leathers in good condition can be cleaned and re-conditioned and refinish making them look like new again.
In many cases, even a badly stained leather or suede garment can be saved, but each one is different. There are many variables when you factor in the cause of the stain with the different types of leather. Most manufacturers recommend that leather garments be cleaned using professional leather cleaning methods. This ensures that the stain will be treated properly and that the suppleness, color, and finish of the garment are maintained and restored.

purse
Purses & Fine Shoes
There’s a common notion that a leather and/or suede purse must be washable because it’s a “natural” product. Yes, when the leather is on the animal, it is in its natural state. After that, nature takes a back seat to elements such as: fashion, style, color and the processing that is involved in the manufacturing of suede and leather.

linen
French Linens
When cleaning antique, french and vintage linens, it is very important to assess each piece before you clean it. Some old fabrics are strong and can survive a hand wash or spin in the washing machine. However, most are more fragile and require a gentle touch. Our green dry cleaning process is a gentle process that many use for their delicate and heirloom antique, french and vintage linens.
Historically, linen and flax were used in french linens as well as those linens from Belgium and other European countries. With the fine attention to quality and detail french and vintage lines possess, it is important to select the proper cleaning process and in many cases the green dry cleaning process is perfect for cleaning your most cherished linens.
