Prevent wedding gown yellowing - Store your gown in an acid-free bag

Did you know that storing your wedding dress in a vinyl garment bag puts it at risk for yellowing? Many brides need to store their dress for a few months before her wedding. But the fumes from most all plastics can yellow white textiles. You should store your gown in an acid-free environment. Cotton is perfect for preservation and has been for centuries (remember those mummies?) Un-bleached, cotton makes a perfect acid-free storage bag for wedding dresses.

After the wedding, storing your wedding gown in acid-free cotton is also excellent. Be sure that your gown has been thoroughly cleaned before putting it away.
