    Hi everyone,

    My Wife and I have just come back from our wedding in Las Vegas and as it was in a desert the shoes and wedding dress were flithy, we have had the wedding dress dry cleaned with the wedding dress people (crazy price) but not sure on how to clean the shoes.

    Any ideas what would the best thing to use?

    They are open toe, will try and post a pic of them later

    Thanks

    Congratulations - hope you had a lovely day!

    Could you recover the shoes in the same colour ivory - paint on dye?
  • Ohh! how romantic! Photos please :D

    Could try something like 'Dab-It-Off' which is pretty good for spot clothing - or as an OS option - consider gently rubbing them over with a soft cloth dipped in talc and then gently brush off with a soft brush, it might just lift the desert dust off and lighten the staining.
