My adult bm dresses are quite creased and hanging isn't working. What's the best way to get the creases out. If to take somewhere to do what prices would I be looking at?

Hang them in your bathroom and set the bath and shower running really hot so the room steams up and leave them for a while.. (Or if you have a steamer that'd work too :-) ) xxx

Have you tried hanging it a steamy bathroom?? Or, do you know someone with a handheld steamer?? Could you not iron it on a really low setting??
Wouldn't have a clue on prices??
Hope you get it sorted soon MrsV!!! :-)

If you have friend who has a steamer that is great but if you can't borrow one then go into a charity shop, most of them should have a steamer and they should let you use it if you make a donation to the charity :) xx

I have a pressure tank steam iron - it works perfectly for creases. The seamstress altering my dress said she would steam it for £20 (not sure if that's average price)
CommentAuthorlouise5
make sure you iron no dress at all towel has to cover all the dress. works perfectly :-) did all mine and didnt cost a thing :-) my nan is 98 and said thats what she did most of her life x

I was going to suggest what some have already suggested and hang in a steamy room. I managed to hang mine up for a couple of months prior to the wedding and they creases went.

Try hanging them in steamy bathroom, if that doesn't help, I would do what Louise suggested with putting a towel over the dresses and iron over the towel, that way the steam is going through to the dresses but the actual iron won't burn the dress xxx
