You can, but if you do it will lose its sheen if machine washed. All 100% silk fabric is recommended dry clean only. You should never throw your silk in the washing machine unless you’re the funky sort going for a distressed and deconstructed look. Dry cleaning is a gentle approach to cleaning though we don’t recommend you dry clean any more often than you really have to.
