Q: Oh those wrinkles. How do you get rid of them?
A: Your dress will be stressed from it's shipping experience. So the first step is to take the dress out of the packaging and hang it up to let it relax for a couple of days. This is especially important for ball gowns with tulle and crinoline. You can also hang the dress in a steam filled bathroom by turning the shower on hot for a few minutes. You can purchase a hand held steamer at most department stores or a professional steamer from Jiffy Steamers. Lastly, any prom, wedding, alterations, shop will have a professional steamer. NEVER USE A STEAM IRON.
