HAUTE COUTURE & DESIGNER LABELS

High-end designer label clothing often requires specialist professional dry cleaning and some labels even recommend the services of Dry Cleaning Institute of Australia members. UPTONS has been a member of the DIA for over 3 decades with our proprietor, David Walker, being a past president of DIA Queensland and having held the honor of presenting an RAQ fashion design award to well-renowned Australian designer Lorna Jane.


Some Haute Couture garments are handmade and can cost many thousands of dollars. These garments are made in the top fashion houses of Paris, Milan, London, New York, and Tokyo.


We clean all garments with great care and make it our business to take extreme consideration with these particular items. Our professionally certified dry cleaner will personally assess these garments upon request and decide on the best cleaning method. Prior to cleaning, an assessment is conducted of the garment’s fabric, construction, trim, the manufacturer's care instructions, and any stains that may be present. Pre-clean testing will then take place to make sure that dyes and trim are solvent-soluble. The most effective cleaning process will then take place and we can be confident of the best result possible.
