If your wardrobe contains at least one dress shirt, then chances are you know how elegant they are and how important it is to apply proper care to them - if you are interested in wearing the same shirt more than once, that is.
With how busy our social and professional lives are, dress shirts became a staple of many people's wardrobes, whether for work, special occasions, or just everyday wear. It is an item that comes out of your wardrobe if you want to present yourself as best as you can at work, or for those special nights you are to enjoy with your loved ones.
Whichever happens to be the case, we know you want your dress shirt to look as sharp and classy as possible - and we can help you with that!
For this week’s article, we will be sharing some tips that will help your dress shirts last as long as they can as we realised that, considering the fact that most dress shirts are also produced from delicate materials and require utmost attention to ensure they stay in a desirable shape, sharing some tips and tricks on caring for your dress shirts could go a long way.
4 Tips Everyone Should Follow When Taking Care of Your Dress Shirts
Without further ado, here are four crucial tips everyone should consider applying to ensure their dress shirts can enjoy years of use without any issues!
Follow the care label instructions: Always check the care label on your dress shirt for specific instructions on how to clean and care for it. Some dress shirts may require dry cleaning, while others can be machine washed. Make sure to follow the instructions carefully to avoid damaging your shirt as different materials require different care! As a global private label shirts manufacturer, we deal with dozens of different fabrics to accommodate business needs of our vast range of clients - allowing us to gather significant know-how and experience when it comes to handling any material we use for our shirts! If your dress shirt is made out of linen, for example, you can check out our previous blog on linen shirts to get a more clear understanding of what makes this material special!
Hang or fold your dress shirt properly: Proper storage also presents itself as an essential tip to keeping your dress shirts in good condition. Hanging your shirt on a hanger with rounded shoulders will help maintain its shape, while folding it neatly and placing it in a drawer can also work well. No matter what, avoid leaving your shirt crumpled up or wadded in a ball, as this can cause wrinkles and damage to the fabric. You will find out that a little care after using your dinner shirt will go a long way!
Iron or steam your dress shirt: Sometimes, it’s a good idea to remember why you are wearing your dress shirt in the first place - and that is, to be as presentable as possible! Wrinkles can be one of your major enemies as they can detract from the professional appearance of your dress shirt, so it's important to iron or steam it before wearing it. Always follow the ironing instructions on the care label, and use a steam iron if possible. If you don't have an iron or don't want to iron your shirt, you can also hang it in the bathroom while taking a shower to let the steam remove wrinkles.
Rotate your dress shirts: Wearing the same dress shirt too often can cause wear and tear, and can also make it more difficult to keep the shirt looking fresh and clean. To extend the life of your dress shirts, try to rotate them regularly and avoid wearing the same shirt more than once a week. This will also help keep your wardrobe fresh and interesting. As they say - the more the merrier!
With proper care, you too can find out how dress shirts made from quality materials can last for years on end without any major issues at all - marking durability and longevity as another benefit of working with experienced private label shirt manufacturers!

FAQ
Q: How often should I wash my dress shirts?
A: It's generally recommended to wash dress shirts after every wear, as sweat, body oils, and dirt can build up and damage the fabric over time.
Q: How can I prevent my dress shirts from yellowing?
A: Yellowing can be caused by sweat or deodorant stains that build up over time. To prevent this, avoid using antiperspirants that contain aluminum, as they are more likely to cause stains. You can also use an undershirt to absorb sweat and protect the dress shirt. Additionally, wash dress shirts promptly after wearing them to prevent stains from setting in.
That is why we believe in the importance of wearing shirts produced from breathable fabrics - one of the main issues we communicate with our clients thanks to our dedication to have an excellent communications team, a must for global manufacturers.
