Fashion hacks


  1. Never put a garment on immediately after ironing, as this can actually cause new wrinkles to form. Instead, let it sit for five minutes to set the press.
  2. If you get wax on a piece of clothing, layer wax paper over the hardened wax and then run an iron over it to loosen it up. Once you pull off the paper, the wax should come right out with it.
  3. Double-stick tape work to shorten a hem in a pinch if you can’t get to the tailor before an event.
  4. To drop bloat five days before a big event, stay away from dairy and whole grains (barley, brown rice, popcorn, oatmeal), which can do a number on the digestive system.
  5. Dressy occasions aren’t the time to play with trends, so know your silhouette and stick to it to always look your best.
  6. Blot, don’t rub, when you spill something on your clothes. Wiping or rubbing will actually further input the stain into the weave.
  7. To clean dirt off suede, remove the crust from a piece of bread and allow it to become stale. Gently rub dirt and stains with the edge of the stale bread, and they’ll disappear. To de-scuff suede, use an eraser or nail file.
