a Versace jacket that did this, which must also have been
washed. There is also the matter of pressing. You don't want to
be taking an iron to a jacket like that. It's far safer to hold
it just above the coat, while on your tailor's dummy, and hit
the steam button.  Thad said...  Or, at the worst, it would make
a nice set of pillows!   Zach said...  I think by "reprise" you
mean "recant," G.  How did the stock-that-shall-not-be-named of
shirts-that-shall-not-be-named work out for you?   Claude

anything. I can't help it if some schmuck thought this thing
could be cleaned in a household washing machine.   I steamed it
on an ironing board through a clean cloth...repeatedly. It's
never going to hang straight again.  David V said...  I once had
a pair of trousers from an MTM suit that , for reasons my wife
never explained, ended up going through the washer and dryer.
