Washing new clothes

Washing before wear spoils the look of the garment, it takes out the dressing and skirts and dresses hang poorly.
I would never buy jeans that need the excess dye removed, a reputable company would have done that at manufacture.
I did wash all new baby clothes for DIL when she asked me, even winter coats and pram suits even though they did not look good after.

I bought some jeans which came with an instruction to wash before wearing as, otherwise, "loose" dye was likely to migrate on to your skin/other clothes.
I ignored the instruction and still have the blue-stained knickers and t-shirt which resulted.
Apart from that, the only other things I've ever washed before first wear are towels.

Good grief, no, other than possibly baby clothes. Life's too short!

My mum used to do, and boil new towels too ??

No of course not! ??

No, I don’t wash new things. I wear/use them and then wash.

Yes i do, i would never wear anything that hasn't been washed first.

Someone else has probably tried it on.

A lot of clothes are finished with a product that may be an allergen to some people.

Just got my husbands new work shirts in the washer to make them less stiff.

No, would not dream of it. Bad enough doing it when it needs to be done.

Not at all ocd - in fact housework is very low on her agenda. (I say this in the nicest way because she is a lovely girl who plays with her children and cooks healthy meals for everyone, but tidying and cleaning is definitely not a priority).

No ,never heard of this before,is she a bit OCD.?

Yes always. My granny did it!
