I LOVED the exact stretch from the limited, but don’t know what to do now that they’ve gone bankrupt. Also, many of your links don’t work.

They have a heavier weight, which helps with wrinkles,and the fabric is yarn dyed. I had two pairs that I wore practically every week for two years, and they did not fade. I had to give them away when I lost weight, and I bought a pair of Ann Taylor pants. I’ve had those for a few months, and they are starting to fade, so I went back to Dressbarn. I also have a pair of NY & Co. pants as well, and they too are excellent.

I use a powder soap called Lasting Care, recommended by my lingerie store (when the only bras that come in your size are $65+ each, you want them to LAST. :P) There’s a little bit of a old-lady-concept-of-fresh scent to it, I really can’t describe it, but it’s pretty light. I have a couple big mesh bags that I use for handwash/delicates. Bras go in one (hooks closed!) shirts and other things go in the other two. Handwash cycle, cold water, drip or flat dry depending on the item. It works pretty well and it’s a lot less hassle than washing them in the sink/tub.

i kind of just eyeball it which isn’t very helpful. Guess the internet says add 1 cup vinegar. I soak them in a tub that I use for soaking laundry but same idea. Hang dry. I wore my jeans the day after they dried and I thought they smelled like vinegar but my friends said they didn’t smell and not joking the smell went away right away it’s awesome I’m never washing my dark jeans again. I’m going to start doing this with my work pants. Vinegar is definitely a proven cleaner and our pants probably don’t need the agitation of the washer to get stains or anything like that out most likely..

So you just soak them in the sink, and then hang dry? How much vinegar to water?
