Static in clothes

JulieM

Rinsing in fabric conditioner sometimes helps.

Fabric softener might help.

There's an old thread here which might give some further tips.

I've also found a tip which suggests putting a safety pin in the seam. Worth a try.

Something synthetic that's full of static is the very worst thing you could wear in hot weather, I'd consider using it as a cleaning-rag or burning it if the silk won't work.

I take your point :rotfl:, but it is VERY pretty, and i am prepared to suffer a little to wear it!

My first thought is that you would be less likely to experience the problem in hot weather anyway. For some reason the weather we've had in the last couple of weeks, cold and dry, is particularly conducive to static (someone more scientific would know why; I don't!). The humid heat - if we're lucky - of a UK summer is much less so.

If you rub a " tumble dryer sheet " over it ... it should get rid of the static ... that's what i do on a couple of my tops ... and it has always worked ... i just use the cheap tesco " own make " ones ..

The tumble dryer sheets also work if you get static in your hair as well ... just rub one over your hair .. and it's gone !

You can buy anti-static spray, I swear by it.
