The label says dry clean only, but to me they look like something that should wash well. Has anyone washed instead of dry cleaned them and if so, did they come out ok?

Yes, I have, and it's been fine. I think a lot of clothes labeled "dry clean only" can be washed. I don't have experience with a Curations item, but what I'd do is take part of the garment, say, part of the waistband or a portion of the garment that won't show if this doesn't work, and hand-wash in cold water with some mild detergent and hang over a chair to dry. If it dries and looks fine, I'd do the entire piece in the washer, cold wash, delicate cycle. I'd avoid the dryer.

The spot test worked out fine, so I went ahead and washed, hung to dry and they came out beautifully. Thanks so much for the great advice MsLomo!
