It’s almost summer, and I started getting out my casual, summer clothing. Uh-oh! Where to put my sweaters, ski pants and scarves?

It is not easy to deposit off-season clothes, especially when you have delicate pieces of clothing like dresses or leather jackets. It’s very important that they don’t crease or stay in high humidity. There are some general rules you must apply before putting off your clothes for 8 months or so… First of all, make sure all the clothes are clean before you put them away for storing. Bacteria or harmful substances contained in stains can deteriorate the fabric. Instead of folding, choose the hanging method for all you clothing. Make sure you use appropriate hangers so you don’t find yourself having an extra breast on your chest, given by a bulge on your blouse. Don’t put your clothes in plastic foliation. Plastic doesn’t “breathe” so your clothes stink up and can even end up staying in their own condense a few months. Don’t be surprised to find mold on you $200 leather jacket. Do I event have to mention? NO HUMIDITY!!! Your storage should have a clean, dust-free and, most important, dry air. Be sure not to put them in the attic either, because too high or too low temperatures can be harmful too. I hope you find any of my tips useful. Now enjoy your summer, resting assure that your winter clothes are in a safe place and you can rely on them in 7 months or so.
