This week's style question submitted by Amanda L.
"Are clothes labeled 'Dry Clean Only', really 'Dry Clean Only' or can I wash them at home in my machine?"
Water, warmth, and agitation can cause fabric to shrink. A 'dry clean only' label tells me the manufacturer is worried about garment shrinkage. In the end there may be a few pieces that you could wash at home, but I would suggest getting the "okay" from a dry cleaner you trust.
