Scary Oxidized Stains Removed

Posted on January 7th, 2011, by Kathy Wright

The sooner spills or stains on your wedding gown are treated the more likely they will be removed. But occasionally it happens…life slips by and your gown including the stains may be temporarily forgotten. If enough time goes by some of the spills may oxidize into dark orange and brown spots.

Scary!

This real life nightmare can happen even when you have the best intentions. Recently one of our customers sent us her wedding gown with some “scary” stains on it. Five years slipped by and by the time she discovered the oxidized stains she worried that they were now set permanently. Fortunately for her, Jennifer, one of our talented staff was able to remove the stains.

Thank goodness this absolutely beautiful wedding gown is beautiful once more.

    I had the same experience, 4 years after my wedding I took my beautiful beaded lace gown out and discovered 3 or 4 brown oxidized stains. I had it professionally dry cleaned but it came back exactly the same. Is there something Jennifer did to this dress that they might not have tried? I’d really like to get them out, or at least fade them as much as possible. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi Erin,

    So sorry to hear about your dress. A good spotter should be able to get the stains out. Be sure to ask the dry cleaner if he can get them out. If he says he cannot, please consider sending the dress to us. I’m sure we can help you.
