hhhheeeeeeelllppp please

i all ready bought my dress but i have it in a bag hung up, my mum took it out the other day to check her suit against my dress colour and it stinks really bad ?????
how do i keep it from smelling in the bag or out without it being seen or damaged i got till september to go yet.
- CommentAuthorNicci
What sort of bag is it in? x
- CommentAuthorbrown2b
one i got from the wedding shop i bought my dress from
- CommentAuthorcymrugal
it should have been sold to you in a breathable bag, but you can buy one from any wedding dress shops, that should air your dress and make the smell dissapear. x
- CommentAuthorbrown2b
i hope so i dont fancy stinking of fish on my day lol

- CommentAuthorNicci
Look on ebay for a showerproof, breathable bag. Fingers crossed this will help. Ive got my bridesmaids desses in one and its really good x
- CommentAuthorcymrugal
you will be fine you could always have it dry cleaned if it worries you, that would do the job x
- CommentAuthorbrown2b
we narrowed it down to the rubber round the top of the dress that smells
- CommentAuthorNicci
mmmmm id defo mention it to the dress shop you got it from-they should know better! Welcome to the forum btw! :D x
- CommentAuthorMrs Daltry
make sure its got air holes in it to let it breath or it could sweat stain aswell
- CommentAuthorbrown2b
thank you and it not got air holes so i aft buy a bag
- CommentAuthorohfiddles
aslo as a precausion you can get dihumidefier (cant spell it) and air neatralisers for clothes bags and suitcases. this will take care of any smell that do occur and should also stop the dress staining it it does sweat a little xxx
- CommentAuthorginge23
Oh I never heard of this before. I pick my dress up next week hopefully I dont have this problem lol I will be goin to my mums every day to smell it xx
- CommentAuthorKizzy81
You can get loads of little scented bags etc, but I wouldn't really advise using them as they could make it smell too strong and clash with your perfume on the day. Can you get anything from Febreze or someone that just neutralises odour and doesn't give off a powerful smell? Lakeland can be good for things like this...
- CommentAuthorohfiddles
you can make an odor neutraliser yourself. backing soda works, put it in a small tub with some holes in the top and pop it in the bottom of the dress bag. or do the same with charcaol briquettes (make sure lid is secure, dont want black on your dress!!!!!). and also febreeze tumble dryer sheets, stick as many of those in as you like. hope that helps a little xxx
- CommentAuthorheather
ebay sells little air fresheners that you put inside dress bads i would change the bag 2.xxx
- CommentAuthorcatch
hi paula, most wedding dress shops offer a pre retail for about £30 this preps your dress for the wedding and think once thay have prepped it you get nice breathable bag to put it in good luck xx
- CommentAuthorcatch

fa breeze my bm dresses are in a quilt cover and they've been in there nearly a year and there still ok =) x
- CommentAuthorLisaT
Very odd suggestion but when I picked up my dress the shop told me to take it out of bag and hang it up in a duvet cover with bottom left un done,ive got mine hanging at my parents and everytime Im there I have sneeky peek and so far it seems to be working!! x
- CommentAuthordebbie0165
i think i will have to check my dress now, i bought mine last year and not getting married until august x
- CommentAuthorkitten
get the little pouches that come in your new shoes and bags and drop them in the bottom of the breathable bag to absorb the moisture and smells
and make sure there is nothing smelly in the the place you are storing your dress
- CommentAuthoressexk
I was told the same as LisaT to put dress in duvet cover with bottom open. x x
