Care Guide
Our clothing is handmade using a variety of recycled materials such as recycled blankets, recycled hand embroidered clothing, recycled wall art and rare recycled carriage shades which are up to 80 years old. Our materials are high quality and breath nicely which means that you do not need to wash them often, if at all (just like winter coats and jackets).
If you do find yourself needing to clean your Modern Societies, please be sure to read the care instructions on each individual item you purchase to help ensure each piece is kept in its freshest condition.
