Then, you pack up your denim and send it via UPS, DHL or FedEx, with delivery confirmation. The denim team at The Laundress will then pre-treat, wash and steam your designer denim and mail it back to you, with delivery confirmation, free of charge.
I haven't tried the service personally, although it's definitely on my to-do list after the local cleaners practically ruined a pair of artfully distressed Current/Elliott jeans. The service is recommended by online purveyor of all things fashionable and expensive, Net-a-Porter. I tend to trust them.
