At Talking Walls, we work exclusively with natural fibres selected for their character, warmth and longevity. With the right care, these materials evolve beautifully over time.
Cotton is more resilient than silk or cashmere, yet it still benefits from a thoughtful routine —
particularly when printed or tailored. Always consult the care label inside your garment.
Machine wash at 30°C on a delicate programme, using a mild detergent without bleach. A detergent formulated for wool or silk is also suitable and helps preserve colour. Turn printed pieces inside out before washing and avoid overloading the machine. Select a low spin cycle, maximum 600 rpm.
Once the cycle ends, take the garment out and allow it to air dry. Do not tumble dry.
Cotton can be ironed on a moderate setting. Steaming is also a gentle alternative.
If you feel unsure about washing at home, professional dry cleaning is recommended.
