ALWAYS WASH COLD & DO NOT PUT YOUR CLOTHES IN THE DRYER! The dryer breaks down this elastic in your bras, under wear or swimsuits. Also a bad idea for clothing with rhinestones or foil graphics/metallic/glitter lettering.
I've seen even the bougiest of people air dry their clothing. I say this because I've always thought of air drying as too old school. 1900s type living. John Mayer says he air drys his vintage t-shirts while on tour. Also a popular youtuber/influencer hang drys all her expensive clothing.
How do I air dry? With 2 fans, an 8 foot ladder, and a whole lot of hangers. The bonus part is you are already hanging up your clothes making it easier to put away when dry. The hard part of doing laundry is already done for you! (unless you're folding clothes in a drawer) For smaller pieces of clothing I place those on the steps of the ladder or even hang on the neck of the hanger.
During the summer, my clothes can dry in 4 hours or less in the garage.
I'm writing this post because I've read comments from Torrid customers saying their clothes get torn apart or are coming loose at the seams. While yes, Torrid's clothing can have manufacturing flaws, I'm speaking of clothes that arrive in perfect condition. For the most part, the last piece of damaged clothing that I received was in 2014. (Torrid did replace though, great customer service!)
My suggestion, go to your garage and dust off that ladder. Your clothes and wallet will thank you for it.
