Isabel Marant #2

[juliex0x0]

Hi I'm new here Anyone who owns the linen tees...how do you wash yours??

 

[Psylocke]

^Welcome to TFS. All I know is that washing them in the washing machine is not a good idea. I f*'ed up my IM linen dress completely when washing it once. It shrunk a lot and all the seams are uneven now

Thanks Psylocke! I have one linen tee and I've always dry cleaned it for fear of ruining it, but just curious if anyone (hand)washes at home..

Well I have an IM linen dress that got quite big, I thought of washing it in the machine to see if it shrinks, but now you scared me with uneven seams.

I always wash them in the washing machine - gentle and short circle (mine has a 15 min circle) cold water and never had problems. I can't bear the though of paying to clean t-shirts.

here my etoile isabel marant "perfect black trousers" (now on NAP)

 

[blossbloss]

Toothfairy, that's a great pair of pants. Is the fabric soft? I've tried the Fred version and the fabric was stiff and I didn't like the the fit because the front pleats were too much.

Just bought electric blue Dali stretch lace dress. In love with colour!but today is snow in Moscow so I don't know when I will wear this dress...

 

[juliex0x0]

I bought the Dali dress in blue too! The color is so beautiful...I really want to wear it to a semi-formal wedding in May. If I dress it up with black satin pumps and a tuxedo blazer I think it could work. Thoughts anyone?

This fabrick is very soft, but it still feels strong and the pleats aren't too much, it is a little fit long, but that's because I am only 160 cm

in the machine, cold water, gentle cycle, woolite...
dry flat...

i've hand washed as well...

depending on how much time i have...

it shrinks the tiniest smidge the first time...
but nothing significant...
and i do make sure to pull the seams straight before laying it flat to dry...

Thank you softgrey!!

Thanks for the advice. I have been stalking this on ebay. I've been just trying to find the Gary jacket but this seems to be sold out everywhere. Anyone know where I can find this? I would be looking for a size 2 or 3 (I've heard it runs really small). Thanks again!

Anybody know the name of this jacket?

NAP just got the blue Elali jacket in stock. But it looks different to the original cut. I ordered it however I'm not quite sure about the shoulder pads. Had anyone tried this newer cut in real life?
