How to Treat a Woman


Everything you need to know

is written

in the fabric of our lives


Read the label

see what we’re made of

silk… satin

cotton—soft… organic… luxurious

wool—merino … alpaca… cashmere

no polyester

one hundred percent absorbable

one hundred percent breathable


Notice the divine craftsmanship

delicate… reinforced… darned

double stitched

slip stitched

cross stitched

running stitch—zigzag

topstitched

knotted… buttoned up

preshrunk

time tested

tightly woven


Carefully follow the instructions

no dry cleaning

no whipstitching

hand wash only

lay flat to dry

no steam

cool iron only when needed


In other words—

handle with care!
