dont know if any of you guys know.. but i collect and some times sell vintage clothing and accessories...
my interest or fetish whatt ever you want to call it.. started about 25 years ago... and now i have been lured back into hunting out the old clothes...
i aquired a dress..which is from the 60's is a cotton weave... with a lovely pattern and gold lurex outlinning the pattern.. any way..
there is old sweat stains under the arm pits... which have really yellowed with age.. plus there is a well what looks like a felt pen mark on the front.. only a little dot and a line....
ok there is staining on the linning.. but thats out of site...
any suggestions.....the dress is cream..... if i can i will try and post a photo.....
thanks
