7-point Washing Plan

The Hewitt & May 7-Point Washing Plan

Part 1: How to care for your Formal Shirt

Remove the collar bones and read the care label before washing.

Separate whites and light colours from darks.

Pre-treat stains before loading the washing machine. Pre-soak dirty clothes for 30 minutes in the washer, a large bucket or a sink.

Load the washing machine distributing clothes evenly and loosely. Never load the machine more than three-quarters full, so clothes can move.

Pour detergent into the washing machine using the recommended amount. Too little detergent won’t clean well, too much won’t rinse out. Never use more than one additional product – fabric softener or bleach – at a time.

Select the right water temperature. Don't wash Hewitt & May shirts at more than 40°C. Finally, select the washing cycle: choose delicates with a light spin to retain some dampness. Avoid tumble-drying your shirt if possible.
