A great suit is an investment in style, and with the right care, it can continue to look sharp and sophisticated occasion after occasion.
Whether your Roco suit is being worn for a wedding, prom, communion, party or another special event, taking a little extra care of it will help keep it looking its best, wear after wear.
1. Always Hang Your Suit Properly
After wearing your suit, hang it on a good-quality, wide, shaped hanger to help maintain the jacket’s structure and preserve its original shape. Just like the Roco hanger it arrived on!
Avoid wire hangers, as these can place unnecessary pressure on the shoulders and cause the jacket to lose its shape over time.
2. Let Your Suit Breathe
After wearing your suit, allow it to air naturally before returning it to the wardrobe. Hang the jacket and trousers in a well-ventilated space for a short while, allowing any moisture or odours to disperse.
For suits reserved for special occasions, this simple step is particularly important, helping to keep them fresh and ready to wear for the next memorable moment.
3. Keep Cleaning to a Minimum
Suits don’t need to be cleaned after every wear. Excessive cleaning can place unnecessary strain on the fabric and affect its appearance over time.
Instead, gently brush away any surface dust or debris and address small marks as soon as possible to keep your suit looking its best.
Always check and follow the individual care instructions before cleaning to ensure your suit remains in excellent condition.
4. Be Careful with Stains
Accidents happen, but taking the right approach can help preserve your suit’s appearance. If a spill occurs, avoid rubbing the fabric, as this can work the stain deeper into the fibres or damage the finish.
Instead, gently blot the affected area with a clean cloth. For stubborn stains or delicate fabrics, we recommend seeking professional dry cleaning to ensure your suit receives the care it deserves.
5. Prepare Your Suit for the Occasion
A little preparation before the big day can make all the difference. Check your suit for any creases, marks or loose threads to ensure every detail looks its best. A garment steamer can help gently ease light creasing, but always check the care label first and take extra care around structured areas, linings and delicate fabrics.
For a truly polished finish, consider professional pressing before a particularly special occasion, ensuring your suit looks refined, immaculate and ready for the moment.
6. Store Your Suit with Care
Proper storage helps preserve your suit’s shape, finish and overall appearance between occasions. Hang it neatly in a cool, dry wardrobe, allowing plenty of space around it to prevent unnecessary creasing and keep the fabric looking its best.
For added protection, store your suit in a breathable garment bag to shield it from dust while allowing air to circulate.
7. Care for the Whole Suit
Remember that your suit is designed to work as a complete ensemble. Store the jacket and trousers together, and take equal care of the waistcoat, shirt and accompanying accessories.
By caring for every piece, you’ll help maintain a coordinated, polished look, ensuring the entire outfit is ready for life’s most memorable moments.
A little care goes a long way!
From the first wear to the next special occasion, looking after your suit properly will help preserve its fit, finish and appearance.
At Roco, we believe the details matter. With the right care, your favourite suit can continue to make an impression long after the occasion is over.
