Preserve the Color and Material
Lightly brush the shoes after every wear to remove dirt and impurities. Always store your Camilla Gabrieli shoes in their care bag placed inside the box and out of direct sunlight and heat. The application of a waterproof spray may on satin and suede help to protect the shoes from dust, stains and dirt.
How to Clean Satin
Our luxurious textiles are sourced and inspected for the highest quality and durability. Being naturally delicate fabrics, we recommend avoiding contact with sharp or abrasive objects and surfaces that may cause pulls or tears.
It is not unusual for delicate fabrics to fade over time, so we recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to sunlight or strong light. When not in use ensure the shoes are stored in their care bags away from any direct light or heat. Contact with liquid may cause satin to stain and therefore it is important to keep your shoes safe from rain, alcohol, oil and other liquids.
You can gently remove surface dirt by using a clean, dry, soft cloth.
To remove stains lightly brush the spot with a soft dry toothbrush to loosen the dirt and make it fall off as much as possible. For the second step, mix 2 parts cold water and 1 part soap to make a cleaning solution, dip the clean toothbrush in it and shake it off a bit so it's not too full of water (too much water can create a water stain). Gently brush the dirt mark away. Try a few times always cleaning off the toothbrush. Don't rub as this can push the dirt deeper into the fabric. Dry the shoes with a soft dry towel.
A waterproofing spray may help protect the fabric from light water contact. Always test first.
How to Care for Lace
A wedding favorite, lace is a light, open weave fabrication known for its elegant yet delicate nature. It is important to avoid contact with sharp or abrasive objects and surfaces that may catch in the fabric’s open structure. Contact with liquid may cause lace to stain. It is important to keep your shoes safe from rain, alcohol, oil and other liquids. You can gently remove surface dirt by using a clean, dry, soft cloth.
How to Clean Insole
The lining of your Camilla Gabrieli shoes is made from smooth leather. You can gently remove surface dirt on the insole of your shoes by using a clean damp cloth or baby wipes. A quick wipe after every wear will ensure the best results.
