Share
Because true luxury deserves thoughtful care.
From delicate lace to dreamy mesh and sensual satins, your lingerie isnât just another layerâitâs an experience. At The Seventh Muse, every piece is crafted to empower, romance, and comfort you. But even the most beautiful lingerie needs love and care to stay that way.
So here it isâour expert, no-nonsense guide on how to wash, dry, store, and cherish your lingerie so it lasts longer, fits better, and feels like the first time, every time.
1. Start With the Label: It Knows Best
Every piece at The Seventh Muse comes with specific care instructions. These aren't suggestionsâthey're lingerie commandments.
Take our Scarlet Seduction â Romantic Red Lace Lingerie Set , for example. The sheer mesh, intricate threadwork, and soft elastic trims demand a gentle handwashânot just for cleanliness, but to preserve their delicate beauty.
2. Hand-Washing Is Non-Negotiable for Lace and Mesh
Lingerie isnât T-shirt territory. Fill a basin with cold or lukewarm water, add a few drops of mild detergent (no bleach, no harsh surfactants), and soak for 5 minutes.
Gently swirl and pressânever wring. Rinse with clean water, reshape, and set aside to dry.
This method is ideal for pieces like the Teal Temptation Lace Spaghetti Strap Lingerie Set, which features delicate lace that loves a soft touch.
3. Machine Washing? Only With Protection
If you're in a rush and the label allows it, place your lingerie inside a mesh laundry bag. Fasten hooks, use the delicate cycle, and always wash in cold water.
This may work for sturdier pieces like the Front Closure Push-Up Bra â Wireless, Backless & Seam-Free Fit  but always double-check your care label. When in doubt, hand-wash.
4. Dry Like a Goddess: Air, Not Fire
Your dryer is not your friend. Tumble-drying can destroy elastic, warp lace, and fade colors. Instead:
- Gently press out water with a towel.
- Lay lingerie flat in the shade.
- Never hang bras by the strapsâtheyâll stretch.
5. Storage is Sacred
Storing your lingerie properly prevents crushed cups, snagged lace, and unwanted wrinkles. Hereâs how to do it right:
- Nest bras inside each other (donât fold the cups).
- Fold panties neatly.
- Use drawer dividers or breathable fabric pouches.
- Keep darker and lighter tones separate to avoid dye transfer.
The Calliopeâs Whim â White Lace Tube Lingerie Set stays pristine when laid flat in its own section, away from hooks or zippers that could snag it.
6. Rotate and Rest
Good lingerie needs rest too. Rotate your sets so elastic has time to bounce back. Wearing the same piece daily weakens its stretch and shortens its life.
We recommend building a capsule of at least 5â7 piecesâincluding your everyday, romantic, and bold stylesâso you always have beautiful options on hand.
7. Traveling? Pack Like a Pro
Going away? Layer bras with cups inside one another, insert tissue paper to maintain shape, and slide into satin pouches to prevent snags.
