A little care adds years to your clutch. Follow this easy routine to maintain shape, shine and colour.
1) Daily/After‑use
-
Wipe gently with a soft, lint‑free cloth.
-
Empty tickets/receipts and leave the clutch open for 10–15 minutes to air out.
2) Weekly quick clean
-
Fabric/Satin: Use a barely damp microfiber cloth; dab—don’t rub.
-
Leather/PU: Wipe with dry cloth first; if needed, a minuscule drop of mild soap in water—test on a hidden spot.
-
Embellishments: Soft brush only; avoid snagging threads.
3) Protecting hardware
Use a dry cloth to buff clasps and chains. Avoid alcohol‑based cleaners near plating or stones.
4) Shape & structure
Keep a little tissue or bag shaper inside so the silhouette stays crisp. Don’t over‑stuff or stack under heavy items.
5) Smart storage
-
Store in a dust bag (or soft cotton cover).
-
Add silica gel to control humidity.
-
Keep away from direct sunlight or damp corners.
-
Stand structured clutches upright; lay soft pouches flat.
6) Stain basics (always patch‑test)
-
Oil/Makeup: Sprinkle a bit of talc/cornstarch, let sit, then brush off.
-
Liquid spills: Blot immediately with dry tissue; air dry—no heat.
If the stain persists, consult a professional cleaner, especially for delicate fabrics.
