Washed something that was DRY CLEAN ONLY

Its a silk J. Crew dress. My DH just threw it into the washing machine. Is it ok? What do I do? I didnt dry it.

Maybe just take it to the dry cleaners and they can bring it back to life. I've washed a lot of dry clean only stuff but nothing silk so I can't be much help with that.

Re: Washed something that was DRY CLEAN ONLY

I have washed a silk Ann Taylor sweater that was dry clean only...

honestly, the first few washes were FINE but after that it became a little dull... I would see how it looks and perhaps take it to the cleaners next time?

I am not sure about this but i think once you wash something thats dry clean only you can't have it dry cleaned anymore. At least thats what my mom told me, i have done it by accident before. Chat Icon
