Humidity is the wardrobe’s quiet enemy: mildew on leather, musty wool, yellowing silk. A few habits get you through the season.
Keep air moving
Do not overfill wardrobes; leave doors ajar on dry days; use silica gel in shoe and saree boxes.
Dry completely before storing
Anything that came in damp goes out to air before it goes away.
Clean what you will not wear for months
Woollens, leather and silks stored through the monsoon should go in clean — see our services.
