Do you Wash New Clothes?

Not

I always wash new knickers. Thought I ought to mention that.

No, I've never felt the need.

Thanks Sara! To the point and nonjudgmental ?

No?

No.
I might leave them hanging up for a couple of days before I wear them, so any viruses will have gone. Anything that comes in a package will have been untouched for long enough by the time I open it.
I suppose I might wash anything bought from a shop rail that looks grubby, but that would be a rarity. ( I probably wouldn’t buy it.)

No, like the ‘newness’.

Never think they will be dirty or germy.

When ignorance is bliss....

I always do.

I find many clothes have a strange lingering smell. Not a horrid smell. Just a bit plastic smelling. This is clothes that have been ordered online

Haven't shopped for clothes in shops for years, bur I'd always have washed those as well

Who knows who's been touching them, wearing them etc etc

Sorry Fanny, couldn’t think of anything else to say on the subject!!

Sara no worries, I meant it, I wasn't being early!

Sarky

No, but my mum always did.

CalendargirlI know, I like the newness.
They look so crisp ?

I always wash things that go next to the skin but not cardigans or jackets. I found that whatever they put in the material often makes me itch otherwise.

I never have and so far have come to no harm.

I do, but not for the above reasons. Fabric is “dressed” when woven/knitted and my skin is very sensitive to it!

Yes I do but we all have very sensitive skin.

Depends what it is. Sometimes dresses don’t hang the same after washing, or it could be me ?. Knickers always, but doubt they have been worn to try as the ones I buy are in sealed multipacks. I suppose it depends on how high my laziness factor is on the day.

New clothes, what new clothes?

Now there are adverts for 6 new washing machines, alongside this thread.

No.

Unless they have an unpleasant smell to them.....

No, it’s not something I’ve ever felt compelled to do. In the past year I have washed all reusable face masks I’ve bought online.

I don't myself though DH always insists that his new clothes are always washed.

Given that he'd be happy living in a tip if I wasnt around to keep the place clean, its a bit of an odd one

No,far too lazy tbh.
