  • Brush up the creases and folds so that the top and bottom face are flat.
  • Fold the right side of the shirt first. Fold one side of the shirt in the center, to about 1/3 of the width of the body. The folding line starts at the center of the shoulder and ends at the hem. You will see the back of the shirt with the front 1/3 of the shirt folded over the back.

  • Fold the sleeve neatly forward, creating a diagonal crease at the shoulder. The sleeves should be in line with the edge of the first fold on the body.
  • Fold the left side of the shirt in the same way.
  • Fold the hem of the shirt about 1/3 of its length.

  • Fold the bottom half of the shirt halfway up. The hem will now be located just below the collar.
  • Turn the shirt over. Now you have the shirt folded like a laundromat or a clothing store. advertisement
  • Method 2 of 3: Fast Japanese folding

    1. Spread the shirt on the table top. Lay the shirt horizontally in front of you, the front of the shirt face down. The collar is on your left hand side.

    2. Pinch the shoulder shirt. The left arm grabs the shoulder of the outer sleeve, at the point between the sleeve and the collar.
    3. Pinch the midpoint of the shirt length. On the same part of the shirt, grab the shirt with your right hand all the way down to the mid-length point (shirts sold at shops are often folded up at this point). The right hand is parallel to the left hand.
      • Remember to grab both layers of fabric.
    4. Fold shirt. His hands are still holding the shirt, the left hand is crossed over the right hand so that the shoulder of the shirt touches the hem of the shirt. Grab both the hem and the shoulder at the same time with your left hand.
      • Your arms are now crossed.
    5. Open your arms. Still grabbing the shirt with both hands, lifting the shirt, simultaneously opening both arms. Stretch the shirt and shake it flat.
    6. Fold the rest of the shirt. Hold the shirt down so that the front part of the undressed sleeve touches the table top, folding the shirt to level with the folded part on the other side.
    7. Put the shirt down. Place the shirt on the table and smooth the front of the shirt now facing up. advertisement

    Method 3 of 3: Keep the shirt not wrinkled

    1. Use the anti-wrinkle mode when drying clothes. The anti-wrinkle drying mode will allow the clothes to cool while spinning in the machine, thus preventing them from wrinkling. Clothing often wrinkles best when warm, so it's best to combat it by cooling.
    2. Use starch to spray on clothes before folding. If you want the garment to be wrinkled after folding, you should spray the starch and the shirt before folding.
    3. Do not cram the shirt too tight. When storing folded clothes in the closet, do not stuff them too tightly, as this will make the clothes more wrinkled. advertisement

    Advice

    • You can use a flat cardboard sheet as a template (or a similar object, such as a magazine) about the size of the shirt fold width. This mold will keep the shirt square. Spread the shirt face down on the table, place the mold on the shirt, and fold the shirt. You can remove the mold after folding.
    • Incorrect folds of the shirt can lead to wrinkles in unwanted places! Be careful!
    • Clothes that are properly folded are more straightforward when carried away and are less likely to be reworked.

    Warning

    • The shirt should be clean and flat.
