Hey girls (and guys too, I guess),
I did a little "shopping" in my aunt's closet this weekend and found a gorgeous dress. The top is very thin black material that is hand "ruched" -- very teeny tiny vertical pleats are sewn in, if that makes sense. Then there is a wide black satin sash-type thing, built in, that goes around my waist. The top is boned so my waist looks teeny and I love it. The skirt is full, A-line, about tealength. It's white, re-embroidered lace and just gorgeous. It is aged and has some brownish-rusty looking spots on it, but nothing huge. I have called a couple vintage clothing shops asking them to reccommend a dry cleaner, and have had just a little bit of luck. Any ideas / suggestions?
I want to wear it to a wedding in Montreal over 4th of July weekend, so it needs to be ready by that Friday.
Thanks!
Panda
