Firstly, wash your shirt using fabric softener, ideally iron the shirt straight from the washing machine.
Use a steam iron on heat setting 2, normally shown as two stars. Most of the shirt will be ironed in the normal fashion, but take care to get a razor sharp crease in the sleeve from the middle of the eipilette down to the corresponding pleat. To finish, iron both sides of the epilettes and pocket flaps.
Before wearing your jumper you may need to cut off any lose threads.
To iron the jumper you need to turn the temperature down on your iron and lightly run over it the jumper's surface to remove any bad creases. Iron the epaulettes normally.
During the summer (May/June to October) no jumper is worn unless told otherwise.
Use a steam iron and press the trouser/skirt through a tea towel, this ensures they do not turn shiny at the creases. When ironing your trousers, make sure you go over the same creases, so you do not create new ones so that it forms ‘tram lines’. Skirts are to be ironed flat.
When you get a new beret it will most probably need moulding. To do this you will need to wet the beret, this can be easily done in the shower. The beret will then need to be placed on your head and shaped so the side is folded down to your right ear, and left to dry naturally. There is no need to shave your beret and do not remove the label that tells you the size.
The brassard will need to be ironed so there are no creases, but the temperate will need to be turned down on your iron so that it doesn’t melt.
