A look inside the closet of every fashion-conscious woman can be very revealing, as it speaks to their taste level. Hanging among items intended for work or daily wear, the most discriminating among us are likely to have a few coveted couture or vintage garments stored, which represent the finest tailoring and hand sewn details in their construction. While these most valued pieces do not often see the light of day, when it is their turn to showcase their wearer, it is essential that they are in pristine conditions, fresh, and wrinkle-free. The issue arises when seeking a dry cleaning establishment that will not only accept the challenge of cleaning couture and vintage items, but also carry out the process with care and expertise. Winzer Cleaners, long favored by Broadway wardrobe masters, is also the preferred dry cleaners for the Upper West Side, East Side, Midtown, Lower Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Long Island, Westchester, and Connecticut. Since 1908 we’ve earned our stellar reputation one client at a time, and look forward to serving you as well.
We are very aware that it can take the maker over 150 hours to create a couture item of clothing as every stitch is by hand- no sewing machines are involved. The process to create haute couture garments dictates specialized care in dry cleaning them as well. The materials used can include laces, feathers, beaded fabrics, embroidery, fibers woven with real gold and silver, silks, high-staple cotton and linen, cashmere, and blends. As for vintage pieces, especially Victorian and Edwardian gowns, as well as 1920s beaded evening wear, these date from a time when few owned sewing machines, so many of these items are handwrought as well.
