Vintage Large

Is it possible to shrink a slightly large silk shirt by washing it in hot water?
I have accidentally shrunk some wool clothing in the same manner but I turned a nice, vintage Swobo cycling jersey into a sport bra. What I have now are some very nice silk shirts that are just slightly too large. Does anyone have some practical advice?
Thanks,
Bill
Yes, it will shrink. Just wash by hand in cool/cold water, stretch and hang dry. Or you coould always send it to the cleaners to be safe.
