Long Dacron dress, beige with hard belt

MATERIALS

Dacron is especially known for its durability, consistency, and quality. Dacron, unlike natural fibers, is hypoallergenic, non-absorbent, and mildew-resistant. 

CARE INSTRUCTION

Washing. To save water, energy, and the quality of your garment, it's best to wash clothes made of Dacron in cold temperatures. You can place them in the washing machine but with a temperature lower than 40 degrees Celcius (104 degrees Fahrenheit). Don't use a strong detergent and make sure the washing speed doesn't exceed 600 revolutions per minute.

Drying. The more sustainable way of drying your clothes is to hang them to dry. Place them on a line in fresh air rather than using a dryer. It preserves the quality of your Dacron garments and saves an enormous amount of energy, carbon emissions, and money.

Ironing. It's not necessary to iron your clothes made of Dacron. The material is very flexible, wrinkle-resistant, and often blended with elastane or spandex to make it even more elastic. If you decide to iron your clothing, select the lowest temperature possible to prevent any damage.
