    Hello all,

    after some advice really, my wedding dress has been in the bag, in my mums wardrobe, its been fine, but now has creases along the train, i have borrowed my uncles steam cleaner to try that, but when i practiced at home,(not on the dress) it was really wet and its scaring me, im not sure if its safe to use on my dress?
    if not whats the best way to get creases out, its a satin dress help me please.....

    Did you buy it from a bridal shop? I chose to take my dress home but the bridal shop said to bring if back before the wedding and they would steam it

    Put it in your bathroom hung up somewhere, turn the shower onto hot letting it run and the steam from the shower will drop the creases :) Old trick and works wonders! x

    Owlandthebutterfly is right - hang it in the bathroom and let the steam drop them out. Just be careful not to get any water from the shower on the dress so wipe the bath dry before you hang it from the shower curtain rail. X

    Agree with Catherine
    That is what I'm doing when I get to Greece the more heat in a room the quicker the creases drop out :)

    I was going to suggest putting it in a bathroom, then either have the shower on really hot with no ventilation or a hot bath.

    Will have to remember this for my dress! Or so seamstresses do this for you? That's what I was hoping for if I'm honest.
