When purchasing a high quality wool suit you should first of all be aware of the fact that these suits will require less frequent dry cleaning than the cheaper cotton or linen ones. Therefore, it is important to be familiar with the basics of wool dress suit care. On the one hand top quality worsted wool dress suits may be worn many times in between cleanings, but on the other hand, when cleaning becomes necessary it is important to use professional dry cleaning services.

It is also important to know that with each dry cleaning a dress suit will normally lose a little color. Therefore, make sure that you don't split the jacket and pants when you're dry cleaning your suit in order to avoid color differences and in order to keep your dress suit in good condition through many seasons.

As for caring for your dress suit when not worn, you should follow a few simple rules:

1. Always hang your dress suit to let the wrinkles fall out and the fabric breath.

2. Hang your slacks upside down from the hems, instead of folded at the knees.

3. Hang the jacket on a molded hanger to reinforce the shoulder structure
