DVF silk jersey dress - do you wash yours?

[fruittea]

Got one in a charity shop for a fiver! So I've saved enough on the purchase price to justify dry cleaning, but wondered if any DVF veterans could advise.

Thanks.

YES, YES, DO DRYCLEAN. I had one, wore it once, was too mean to pay to have it drycleaned, handwashed it in cold water. Result - DVF wrap dress the size of very small smurf !!!

Oh no! Glad I asked! Thanks

yes, i daren't wash mine. and i normally wash everything...

Will get it cleaned then. Still smells slightly of its previous owner

Thanks for the advice.

at getting one in a charity shop - what a bargain.

I hyperventilated when I saw it

I don't blame you.
