It is always better to read the clothing care labels of the plus size dresses you buy. Read the labels carefully and follow whatever instructions found here. So if you find a label that states ‘hand wash in cool water’ all you have to do is to gather the hand washable plus size dresses and sort them by color.


Then the bright and strong colored plus size dresses have to be washed separately. It is better to start with the whites or the light colored dresses by placing them in a sink that is full of cool water. Squeeze about a teaspoon of gentle detergent in the water and then sud the clothes using hands. It is okay to add a drop of detergent to the strongly stained areas by rubbing the spot gently with fingers. However, remember to never twist of wring delicate clothing as the material only gets spoiled in the process.


After washing the clothes, rinse them in cool water and then squeeze gently to get rid of water. The bras and other lightweight garments have to be hung to dry while the heavier clothing like cashmere sweaters have to be shaped by your hands and laid flat on thick towels to dry. However it may be needed to change the towels used for drying, once or twice. And then once the garments are nearly dry, you just have to hang them out in the air, to get rid of all remaining dampness in the dress.
