Chiffon Saree Care: 3 Hacks to Keep Your Favorite Saree New for Years!

• Always clean chiffon sarees before storing to prevent 'foxing' or yellow stains from perfume/food residue.
• Opt for dry-cleaning pure silk chiffon; synthetic chiffon can be hand-washed but professional cleaning is safest.
• Protect from friction: Use acid-free tissue paper between folds to prevent damage from embroidery, sequins, or zari work.
• Prevent zari oxidation and fabric tearing by placing acid-free tissue paper between layers.
• Use natural insect repellents like cedarwood blocks, dried neem leaves, or dried orange peels instead of naphthalene balls to protect silk chiffon.
