Wool Ivory

How can I salvage a wool coat with an old coffee stain?

It is 80% wool and 20% nylon, ivory, and the stain is on the collar. The dry-cleaner couldn't get it out but I want to save it. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance!
Wool carpet cleaner did wonders!

Thank you for the answers!

sounds crazy- but I swear by "greased lightning" on laundry stains - you can find it at target or some grocery stores. Note that dry cleaners I find to be bad stain removers sometimes.

"...You Don'T Look Like One..." So How Do You Look? Shlomit Tamir Ben-Ari - Image Consultant

 

                        "...You don't look like one..."

                            So  how  do  you  look?

                        ------------------------------------

                              Shlomit Tamir Ben-Ari   -  Image consultant  *

 

 

A communication gap is caused when others perceive us in a different way  we meant  them to.

The fact is, that the first impression is the strongest one. Even unconsciously, people will look for a proof  to verify and justify their gut feeling.

So, since we don't get a second chance to make the first impression, and since different occasions demand different looks, we better be aware of the various styles, learn what they project, and put this message in action.

 

 Before we decide on  the image  we want to convey, it is important to insist on three factors:

 

1. The outfit should be appropriate to the time and place :

    For example, a mini skirt that reveals toned legs, should be saved for a social occasion.

    A Polo shirt should be worn during vacation time.

 

2. The style should be consistent and repetitive :

    You wouldn't  want  to project  authority and  reliability on one day, and  appear dishelved                                  

   on the next.

 

3. The different pieces of the outfit will be of the same style :

    A watch with a rubber band will clash with the suit.

    A plastic pen will look out of place in  a  dress-shirt's pocket. 

.

 

We're talking about four main styles. Each one of them conveys a  unique  and different  message:

The classic style, the sporty style,  the dramatic,  and the romantic style.

 

 

The classic Style 

 

The appearance.

When we watch people who are dressed in the classic style, we immediately have a scenario in our head regarding their personality.

They look mature, sincere, respectable, trust worthy, authoritative, self control, powerful, and thinkers. The might look as belonging to the high society, well educated, financially well off, and in a senior-position in the corporate.

The classic style people might also appear to be formal, conservative, keeping distance, non- adventurous.

In order to project this image, here are some suggestions:

 

The wardrobe.

Silhouette -   should be straight and in place. Not puffed, not floaty.  Covering the vast area of the body.

Fabrics -  cotton, blended cotton, wool, ( cool wool for summer ), blended wool,                                                                                              gabardine,   silk, ( a women's blouse ).
