High-end clothing has always given us the impression of high prices, good quality, and exquisite design. However, nowadays, many luxury brands have inherent flaws such as being difficult or impossible to wash. On this important day of 3.15, our editors have specially compiled the luxury brand designs with the most incidents in the washing and dyeing industry to help everyone better understand potential issues before purchasing and washing.
1. Dolce & Gabbana Tops
Risk Index: ★★★★★
Reason for Listing: Contains all elements of high-risk clothing: multiple materials combined + multiple colors combined + extremely low colorfastness.
Washing Risk: After washing, color transfer and bleeding accidents easily occur. Many clothes from this brand are brightly colored, often combining multiple colors and materials with poor colorfastness.

Incident Treatment: Once an accident occurs, this type of clothing cannot be salvaged.

Washing Risk: Dry cleaning causes print peeling on the back; water washing causes deformation. Fabric composition: 100% wool (excluding coating), lining composition: 100% cupro fiber.
Incident Treatment: Once the print peels off, it cannot be treated; only a painter can redraw the pattern.

Reason for Listing: Washing according to the label causes the coating to peel off.
Fabric Composition: 100% Nylon.

Accident Treatment: This type of coating cannot be repaired.
9. Fendi Monster Series
Risk Index: ★★★
Reason for Listing: Decorations and color matching have low colorfastness, prone to fading and color transfer.
