Dry Cleaning a Tuxedo – Sharp and Ready for the Occasion
A tuxedo is formal tailoring, usually wool, and looks its best with a gentle clean and a sharp, careful press. We professionally clean and press your tuxedo, and handle the satin lapels and details with care so they keep their sheen. Order online, we pick up at home or work, clean, and send the tuxedo back ready for the big day.
Gentle cleaning for formal wool
A tuxedo is formal tailoring, most often in wool, and keeps its sharp look best with a gentle clean and a precise press. We adapt the treatment to the formal fabric, so the garment comes back clean and with a sharp, defined finish for the occasion.
Satin lapels and details
Satin lapels, facings and trim are more delicate than the wool body and need careful handling so they keep their sheen. We treat these details with care, so the satin still looks glossy and refined after the clean.
Jacket and trousers cleaned together
So the colour and finish stay even, we clean the jacket and trousers together. That way both pieces age the same and stay matched over time, so you avoid one part taking on a slightly different tone than the other. If you're going to a wedding or another formal occasion, it's worth sending the tuxedo in good time, so it's freshly cleaned and pressed for the day.
How to order
Choose the service and briefly tell us about the garment and any stains when you order online. We pick the tuxedo up at home or work, or you drop it at a service point or partner store – you choose the shipping method in your order. Once the tuxedo is cleaned and pressed, we send it back to you.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to dry clean a tuxedo?+
The price depends on the garment and the fabric. You see the price before you order – see the full price list on our prices page.
Should I clean the jacket and trousers together?+
Yes, we recommend it. When the jacket and trousers are cleaned together, they age the same and keep the same colour and finish – if you only clean one piece at a time, they can take on slightly different tones over time.
Can the satin lapels handle cleaning?+
Yes. Satin lapels, facings and trim are more delicate than the wool body, and we handle them carefully so they keep their sheen and still look glossy and refined.

It depends on the garment. If you need the tuxedo for a specific occasion, we recommend sending it in good time. You get a confirmation when we receive the garment and can follow the status of your order.
Can you clean a tuxedo before a wedding?+
Yes. If you're going to a wedding or another formal occasion, we recommend sending the tuxedo in good time, so it comes back freshly cleaned and pressed, ready for the day.
