And? What are you afraid will happen to you? Sincere question.

I wash things that can be machine-washed, but not dry clean only stuff.

I always wash clothes I buy for the kids before they wear them but usually not the things I get for myself.

What if it's dry clean only?

Wear.

I wash anything that's machine washable, first.
If it's dry clean only, I just wear it.

DH thinks I am a freak, and wears everything without washing, even socks and undies.

I only wash my undies, but husband washes everything. For those afraid of germs, don't you try it on in the store? You're already contaminated.

Wash! Didn't any of you watch House? :p

Underwear, always. Everything else, almost never.

Wash underwear only.
Wear the rest. Things never look as good once you wash them and I'm not concerned about germs or chemicals. Plus, it's not as if germs are going to live on clothing anyway.

I just put it on.

If it is worn next to my skin, I wash it first. Sweaters, etc. where there is a layer of clothing in between, I don't.

This. It's never as crisp/ironed as the first time it's worn!

I even do this with my 6 year old. Because she can like it in the store, like it in her closet, and then hate it when she puts it on. I save every tag/receipt. There would we tons of waste if I pre washed all her clothes.
