Valentine's dinners, winter weddings, and special nights out call for outfits that look polished, fresh, and flawless. From tailored suits to elegant dresses and delicate fabrics, proper care is the key to making sure your clothing is ready when it matters most.
At Lapels Laundromat, you don't have to handle it all yourself. Our professional garment services—including dry cleaning, wet cleaning, and expert pressing—help you step out with confidence.
Bring Special Occasion Clothing in as Soon as Possible
Even when clothes look clean, they often carry invisible stains from food, drinks, makeup, perfume, or body oils. Waiting too long to clean them can cause stains to set, making them harder to remove and potentially damaging fabric.
Best results come from acting fast.
Bringing your suits, dresses, and delicate garments in as soon as possible allows our professionals to properly treat and clean them before stains become permanent.
Lint Rolling for a Polished Look
Winter fabrics attract lint, pet hair, and dust—especially dark colors and textured materials.
Before heading out:
-
Use a fresh lint roller
-
Focus on lapels, shoulders, sleeves, and hems
-
Roll gently to avoid pulling fibers
This small step can make a big difference in how sharp your outfit looks.
Ironing vs. Steaming: What's Best for Your Clothes?
Wrinkles are unavoidable, but choosing the wrong wrinkle-removal method can cause damage.
Ironing is best for:
-
Cotton dress shirts
-
Slacks and structured garments
-
Fabrics that need crisp lines
Always use the proper heat setting to avoid scorching.
Steaming works best for:
-
Dresses and skirts
-
Suits and blazers
-
Silks and delicate fabrics
Steaming relaxes fibers without flattening them, making it ideal for garments with structure or embellishments.
Not sure which method your garment needs? Professional pressing takes the guesswork out and ensures the best finish.
Choose Professional Cleaning for Delicate & Special Pieces
Many date-night and special-occasion garments aren't meant for home washing. Dry cleaning and wet cleaning provide the proper care for fabrics that need gentle yet effective cleaning.
Lapels Laundromat offers:
-
Dry cleaning for structured and delicate items
-
Wet cleaning for garments that benefit from water-based care
-
Professional pressing for a crisp, polished finish
Our expert care helps protect fabric quality, color, and fit—so your clothes look great wear after wear.
Look Your Best Without the Stress
Your outfit should boost your confidence, not add to your to-do list. Trusting professional garment care ensures your clothes are clean, pressed, and ready for the occasion.
Whether it's date night, a wedding, or a special event, Lapels Laundromat helps you show up looking your best—without the hassle.
