Possible Yellowing?

So I got my dress back in January 2019 for a super good deal. I'm wearing it for my elopement on July 18 and then also plan to wear it for our postponed reception in August 2021. When I got my dress in 2019 it was probably already maybe a year old because I got it at a store where they sell used wedding dresses for a cause. Should I be worried about it yellowing for next year? Should I have it professionally cleaned after the elopement this year?

I think it should be ok as long as it’s in a nice garment bag or dress that would prevent that

Just to add my dress has been in a garment bag for two years now and it hasn’t yellowed but I did get it dry cleaned in between

Okay good to know! I've been storing it in a garment bag inside a big box underneath the bed.

I’ve had my dress for going on 2 years and it’s never yellowed. I do think if it looks dirty on the bottom it would be good to clean it.

I would have it cleaned after the elopement, but it should be fine until next year as far as yellowing.
