When it comes to clothing care, a garment steamer is one of the most useful investments you can make. My steamer is a godsend when I’m in a rush and the outfit I want to wear needs a refresh. It’s really as simple as pulling it from my wardrobe and running the steamer over it while it’s still on the hanger.
I often use it in place of a wash or dry cleaning, since steam can help lift water marks left by spot cleaning and odours left by cooking or smoke. When I’m travelling, I even find the process of unpacking and steaming each garment a good cure for jetlag.
