clean clothes

Freshly washed wardrobe

Clean clothes are garments that have been washed or are otherwise free from dirt, stains, and odors.

The phrase often appears in domestic contexts involving laundry: I need to put on clean clothes before we go out, There's a stack of clean clothes on your bed.

Clean clothes contrast with dirty or worn items that need washing.
