Lions, Tigers, and Lanvin oh my!
It seems that no matter where Jeeves turns these days he can not escape the classic stylings of French fashion house, Lanvin.
Between constant fashion editorials and red carpet appearances your man Jeeves found himself craving the silhouettes and fabrics of this internationally recognized label.
How fortunate for Jeeves ( and the rest of Manhattan) that first New York Lanvin store has opened up right again at Jeeves’ doorstep.
The new three-story Madison Avenue location has already created quite the stir with its impeccable interior design and mysterious allure.
You can imagine the excitement that surged through Jeeves when the shop received their first Lanvin piece for cleaning care.
It makes sense however that an international label such as Lanvin would recognize the caliber of cleaning that comes from the only worldwide garment care firm in existence. Incredible couture such as Lanvin deserves nothing less than the Jeeves touch.
Lanvin pieces brought to the Jeeves New York location will receive the best care available in the world, since Jeeves cleaning is 100% chemical free through his exclusive CO2 cleaning system.
For the best couture dry cleaning and couture alterations in New York City there is no one with more experience than your man Jeeves; patiently waiting on the Upper East Side to be at your service.
Keep Your Whites Bright Without Worrying About the Sun
There is nothing quite like the feel of linen against your skin and the sand between your toes. Your man Jeeves enjoyed the long holiday weekend basking in the sun in South Hampton with friends and family.
Jeeves always looks forward to Memorial Day Weekend as it not only marks the official beginning of the summer season, but it also permits him to break into a whole part of his wardrobe that he has abandoned since September. He has longingly stared at his seersucker and white linen pants as they adorn his shelves and not his body.
Jeeves is even more excited to wear his summer whites this season , for now he can dry clean them in a manner that will keep them bright and white all summer long without that dingy tinge of gray that has ruined so many pieces in the past.
How?
Jeeves’ ECO2 Cleanse process that is Simply Green. Simply Clean. Simply Better for you. If you have tried our carbon dioxide cleaning process on the items in your regular wardrobe and noticed the difference imagine what it will do to brighten your whites!
Jeeves recognizes that many people are confused by how this environmentally friendly process cleans better than traditional dry cleaning, so as always he is here to make sure that you understand how to provide the best possible care for your wardrobe.
Ordinary dry cleaning uses filters to keep the dry cleaning solvent clean during the “wash phase”, however if these filters aren’t kept perfectly clean you end up cleaning white clothes in dirty solvent. It would be the same thing as you taking a bath in water that had been previously used by 10 people before you…no thank you.
Jeeves wonders why if people wouldn’t do that to themselves than why would they consider doing that to their clothes?!
ECO2 Cleanse cleans your clothing in a cleaning solution that is similar to the ingredients in hand sanitizer. After your clothes are rinsed in pure liquid CO2 FOUR TIMES! This rinse phase removes all suspended soil and restores clothes back to their original brightness, and also prevents them from turning gray.
Solvair can even restore clothes that have been turned gray and ruined from previous summer seasons.
So whether you are jet setting to The Hamptons, Fire Island, Martha’s Vineyard, or simply enjoy the privilege of wearing your whites you can trust Jeeves to care for all your dry clean only white clothes so that you can wear them for many more summers to come.
For the best dry cleaner to care for your summer wardrobe the only choice is Jeeves New York.

Jeeves Offers the Touch of a Gentleman to Help Keep Your Clothing Fresh!
As a gentleman with an appreciate for fashion and a love of fine garments, your man Jeeves can not grasp the notion of clothing that is ripped & torn before ever leaving the hanger! Perhaps Jeeves is a bit of an old timer, but it is usually when clothing starts to get holes and is worn out that you consider parting with the item that has clearly become a wardrobe staple and finding a replacement ASAP.
If you have not adopted the look of Lindsay Lohan and still admire all your wardrobe pieces in their non tattered glory then you should seek out a cleaning method, such as the ECO2 Cleanse process at Jeeves New York that significantly reduces the wear and tear on your wardrobe. The gentle cleaning process literally has your clothing floating through what can only be described as champagne bubbles.
Don’t be confused that your man Jeeves is using bubbly to clean clothing, rather this method is so gentle and so safe that you the same substance used for cleaning can also be imbibed.

Recent Studies Link Perc to Parkinson’s & Cancer
With all the fun that Jeeves had during Fashion Week he had almost forgotten about all the other news updates he had been receiving over the past two weeks. Your man Jeeves always likes to stay well informed especially when there is news pertaining to his trade. The dry cleaning industry suffered a fatal blow as the news shed some new light onto a very touchy topic.
The most common dry cleaning chemical, perchloroethylene (perc) has been labeled by the US EPA as a “likely human carcinogen” in a report published this week. Another report report released by The Parkinson’s Institute and Clinical Center links perc exposure to Parkinson’s disease.
Now you know why your man Jeeves is so adamant about his ECO2 Cleanse process…
Currently 85% of all dry cleaning firms in the US still use Perc to clean clothes! Your man Jeeves is not the best at math, but there are over 3,000 dry cleaners alone in Manhattan so imagine what that means on a national scale and 85% of them are still introducing a toxic chemical to their clients??
Fortunately, in a few months, any machine that is 15 years or older still operating with Perc will be banned in the state of California. A statewide ban on all machines using perc will take effect in 2023. Your man Jeeves thinks that 10 years is a long time to wait for change, but is also curious why other states are not working towards passing similar legislation?
Your man Jeeves knows that his CO2 Cleaning machine is not inexpensive, however there are other cleaning alternatives that could greatly reduce the use and need for perc. Currently, the US EPA has listed two methods of garment cleaning “safe”, CO2 dry cleaning and wet-cleaning.
Jeeves has boasted time and time again about the superb cleaning capabilities of his CO2 ECO2 Cleanse process, and wishes he could share these with other cleaners so that they could keep their clients and the environment safe just like your man Jeeves does for you.
It may be a long time before the permanent ban of Perc, but for now for CO2 dry cleaning and wet cleaning in NYC Jeeves New York is completely Perc free!
Jeeves Attends Perry Ellis Fall 2010 Fashion Show
After an exciting but exhausting weekend, Jeeves was thrilled to be in the audience for the show of one of his favorite men’s designers, Perry Ellis and not be tucked away backstage.
As soon as the first look hit the runway your man Jeeves already knew he was going to be very busy next fall if these looks are indicative of what is to come. With jackets in deep hues, and made of distinct materials including goat skin had Jeeves on the edge of his seat for what would be next down the runway.
Jeeves was very excited to see that velvet blazers would be returning to the stores next fall, but with a little more flare for the dramatic with their leather trimming. There was no shortage of fitted suits perfect for your man Jeeves and his clients.
If you also enjoyed the Perry Ellis Fall 2010 collection just remember that your man Jeeves offers the best leather cleaning in NYC, and his chemical free ECO2 Cleanse process will keep your suits looking sharp and odorless!
Jeeves cleans down with CO2
As the weekend approaches, so does the impending doom of yet another winter storm bringing with it lots of frozen precipitation, and the need for the warmest of your outerwear.
Your man Jeeves has had just about enough of these cold New York days, and is certainly ready for spring and the warmer weather. However, on these brisk days he braves the streets wearing his down jacket which he only used to wear on the exceptionally cold days because it was quite an ordeal to clean.
In the past Jeeves had avoided cleaning this jacket at great lengths due to the fact that the first one he purchased when arriving in the US was almost ruined because of his ignorance to care for a garment he was unfamiliar with.
Many down jackets instruct the consumer NOT to dry clean these jackets. Why? Typically, in the dry cleaning process the feathers all clump together so that their warmth is no longer distributed throughout the entire jacket. Worst of all, the chemical odor lingers in the feathers and follows you everywhere.
The same results tend to happen with home cleaning sans the cleaning odor, but with the added potential for a devastating headache as many cleaning professionals instruct that tennis balls or sneakers be placed in the dryer with the jacket to help redistribute the feathers.
This cleaning was a futile effort for your man Jeeves until now. With the introduction of the CO2 machine, and this being Jeeves’ first winter with the ECO2 Cleanse process he figured he would try his luck. By this point he had tried everything else…
Before cleaning Jeeves was very hopeful, for he had helped Mrs. Jeeves during the last snow blast, and had seriously soiled his jacket. In case you were unaware your man Jeeves LOVES color, so his vibrant jacket does not conceal stains well.
The results were remarkable! The jacket was removed from the machine spotless, odorless, and colder than the temperature outside the store. Your man Jeeves felt like he had just received a brand new jacket and it only took half the time of regular dry cleaning.
CO2 dry cleaning is able to clean any down jacket much better than any other process and in much less time.
For all your down jacket cleaning needs come visit your man Jeeves, the only luxury garment care firm with CO2 in all of Manhattan.
The Doctor is in
A recent discovery in the medical world inspired your man Jeeves to do a little research of his own. Doctors everywhere have been under the microscope ( quite literally) for their standard uniform involving a potential bacteria transmitter.
You may be wondering how this is even possible as hospitals are known to be among the most sterile places. The answer my friends is simple. The necktie. As I had mentioned in my post from last week there is a certain aura of professionalism and success associated with one’s appearance.
Especially in a field such as medicine individuals will undoubtedly have more confidence in a well dressed physician than a slovenly man. This being said you can imagine the uproar this is causing among medical professionals.
About five years ago, a study was performed right here in the city at the New York Hospital Medical Center of Queens that involved 42 medical personnel. Your man Jeeves was shocked to learn that almost 50% if the neckties analyzed were host to bacteria that can cause pneumonia, blood infections, and more.
Before learning of the correlation between germs and ties your man Jeeves would have never assumed this to be an issue. Jeeves would only dryclean his ties if he were to have a little mishap while eating.
It is beneficial that your man Jeeves is so well informed because now he can share this valuable information with his clients some of whom practice medicine in Manhattan.
The streamlined ECO2 Cleanse process does a remarkable job of cleaning as many of you may already know, however you were probably unaware that it has also proven to be very effective at removing contaminants.
Research has been conducted that would suggest cleaning with CO2 kills germs more effectively than traditional drycleaning. Since research and testing are continuing this is not a FDA approved method yet.
Your man Jeeves would hate to see the tie go out of style so if you are affiliated with medicine in Manhattan in anyway please allow Jeeves and his ECO2 Cleanse process to help keep ties bacteria free.
