Wear & care

The Up Late Collection features luxurious Velveteen and Velour shimmering Xanadu and opulent Pewter Foil - all speciality fabrics but with very different looks and feels. Find out more about these glamorous fabrics below:

Velveteen

Velvety to the touch, elarroyoenterprises's Velveteen is a luxe Velveteen with minimal stretch. Flattering to the figure, it moulds to the body without clinging or losing its shape.

Velveteen is a delicate fabric. To preserve the look of the pile, avoid contact with rough surfaces.

Composition: 73% Cotton 25% Rayon 2% Spandex

How To Care

Velveteen is a Dry Clean Only fabric. When caring for your garment follow the instructions on the care label.

Do not iron.

To help you smooth the pile of your Up Late pieces, all Velveteen garments come with a Velveteen fabric swatch. Dampen the swatch and brush the surface of the garment in an upwards motion, working with the direction of the pile to smooth out wear and abrasion lines on the fabric.

How To Store

Store hanging for longevity and to preserve the shape of the garment.

Velour

With a velvety handfeel, Velour has high-quality, 4-way stretch with a shine finish. It is designed to work with every movement of your body without clinging or losing its shape.

Velour has a beautiful drape. It flatters and moulds to the figure exceptionally well, with a high-quality, hug-like stretch.

Garments made from Velour are crease resistant, easy to care for and a perfect choice if you’re looking for a garment with glamorous finish.

How To Care

To wash your Velour garment, use a ‘delicate’ wash machine setting on a cool temperature. Turn your garment inside out and avoid mixing bright colours and whites. Avoid using a fabric softener, as it can encourage fibres to pill. If pilling occurs, remove gently by hand or with a de-pilling comb.

As an added tip and to preserve qualities of the fabric, always wash your jersey garments separately from other textiles and dry inside out in a shaded area. Remember, our Velour is crease-resistant and doesn’t require ironing.

When caring for your garment follow the instructions on the care label.

How To Store

Do not store a jersey garment on a hanger for a long period of time. Where possible, always use the hanging ribbon to support your garment.
