Metropolitan Opera

Madame Butterfly

February 23, 2012

(http://drycleaningtips NULL.com/2012/02/23/madame-butterfly/photo-8/)This week your man Jeeves got a call from the Metropolitan Opera House with an emergency request. We needed to clean, in 24 hours, the kimono worn for the lead female role.

The robe was in desperate need of cleaning as it was stained with makeup, soil and perspiration. The lads at the Jeeves workshop worked late into the night as the kimono was very fragile, covered with silk embellishments.

After much hand-cleaning and extensive hand-steaming the kimono was rushed back to the Met in time for the evening performance in perfect condition.
