Lolita Coat Care

Coat Care
As it is winter, it is cold in many places and lolitas need to stay warm so they buy coats. I just recently bought a used Angelic Pretty coat and it is a little dirty so I want to know how to clean it. I think I saw someone mention that they had their coat dry cleaned, but she didn't say what kind of coat it was. I have searched on egl how to wash a coat, but I can't seem to find what I need. For those of you who have a lolita coat, have you ever washed it? How did you do it? Was it a brand coat? What kind of fabric was it made out of? Did it have animal embroidery? Did your coat ever start to pill or fade? Did you avoid washing the faux fur?
 
Thanks in advance for any help, advice, or tips!
