I got married a couple of weeks ago and am hoping to sell my gown asap through oncewed and tradesy. If it doesn't sell in a couple of months, guess I'll try ebay. Well, the sort of problem was that the bottom of my dress and underneath the skirt got dirty from walking around, some photos outdoors, and my friend's 2 kids stomping on the front during a group photo. I'm thrilled to report that the dress can be washed by hand with water and regular hand soap. It got out the stains and nothing shrank! It's an Oleg Cassini from Davids Bridal and is polyester. Obviously, if it were silk it wouldn't have worked, but this probably saved over $100-150 in cleaning bills. Just wanted to mention this in case some other brides have similar dresses.
