stained silk

Hi all

This is a rather embarassed post :oI am doing a deep clean of our bedroom and the wardrobes and I have come across a number of items that we forgot. One is a really pretty pure silk blouse of mine. It is georgette silk over a camisole type under blouse.

The problem is that we smoked in the bedroom for a long time, I know..disgusting. We have stopped now but the blose is yellowed with grime and nocotine staining.

I was going to try and use the oxy stuff that I got in lidl but it clearly says don't use on silk. Any ideas how to clean it? Would stardrops work maybe?

thanks
