Eli5, Why can’t suits be washed in the washing machine?
In: 6317
If the fabric is wool or wool blend, the agitation process could actually start to felt the fibers closer together. This is, I think, the main reason wool is said to “shrink” when washed.
If the garment has 2+ fabrics sewn together inside it and one of them changes size, you can see how that would be a problem!
