my dress was full of sequins, beads, u name and ....i put it in the washing machine on a delicate, took it out and scrubbed the black oily bits on the bottom with a nail brush and vanish, put it through another cycle and it came out brand new and it was a big, puffy, full-on dress x0

I took a dress to Johnsons Dry Cleaners (used by the local wedding shops) and they charged me around £28 - although it is quite a simple dress with no sequins or beading.0

Mine is like that also, I did read on a different forum that somebody else had sone the smae as you but i don't fancy risking it, at keast if it goes wrong in the shop I can sue the !!!!!! off them lol x0 -
I think there was a dry cleaners in Collier Row, Essex which advertised it for about £10 as it was near a dress shop. I would advise dry cleaning as opposed to washing. Let me know how much you get it for.
