🧼 Fabric Wash & Care guide
For Unstitched Fabrics | Fabric Tales by RR Ventures
🪡 BEFORE STITCHING CARE
✔ Pre-Wash Natural Fabrics: Always pre-wash cotton, linen, and cotton blends to prevent post-stitch shrinkage.
✔ Check for Color Fastness: Test a small fabric portion for color bleeding before full wash.
✔ Air the Fabric: Unfold and let the fabric air out to release packaging creases and odors.
✔ Press Before Cutting: Light ironing on the reverse side helps prepare fabric for precise cutting and stitching.
🧵 AFTER STITCHING CARE
✔ First Wash with Care: Use cold water or dry cleaning for the first wash to preserve color and fabric finish.
✔ Avoid Overwashing: Wash only when necessary to retain durability and appearance.
✔ Store Properly: Use breathable covers for suits; fold shirts neatly or hang with padded hangers.
✔ Steam Over Ironing: Prefer steaming to retain garment structure, especially for suiting fabrics.

This month, July 2025, I ordered two premium suitlengths @ Fabric Tales , Cavalero 180 and Raymond Cartino 160 .
Excellent quality , great packaging , fast delivery and best possible pricing .
Before ordering, I was a bit worried about quality but Mr Rishi of Fabric Tales reassurrd me & promised to arrange a return pick up if I did not like the products .
When I got the products , I was very happy .
Highly recommended 👍🏻
Got a linen suit stitched recently and I’m in love with the fabric! Super breathable, soft, and has that natural, effortless vibe. It looks polished but still comfy and perfect for summer. I paired it with a matching dupatta and the whole look came together so well.
Good fabric! ordered 140s merino wool navy blue suit length . Delivery was fast and packing was good
Good
I had an excellent experience while purchasing at Fabric Tales. I got Raymond sapphire material what I wanted and the collection is very good. There was a problem in delivery. When I called them it was immediately attended to my parcel was sent again and I received the same. Over all I would recommend to everyone to purchase from fabric tales.
