What to do with your dress after your debutante ball?
September 22nd, 2009What to do with your dress after your debutante ball?
Once the evening is over you’ll need to get your Debutante dress dry-cleaned as soon as possible. In the light of day you might find that there are a few marks that need to be removed from your dress. A reputable drycleaner is a true professional and can usually do this without any problems.
Before the event, think about what you are planning to do with your Debutante dress once you have worn it. If you are going to sell your Debutante dress, it is a great idea to take some photos specifically for selling the dress when you have your hair and makeup done and you are ready to leave. People often think about selling their dress after the event and realise that the photos they have taken are not ideal for showing the features of the dress.
When photographing the dress remember to include a full length view shot of both the front and back of the dress, a close up of the top half of the dress as this is where there is often special detailing and a photo of any other features of the dress.
If you plan on keeping your dress for any length of time make sure you keep it in a safe place. The dress can be hung in a cupboard with a drycleaner’s plastic cover over it or it can be carefully put into a large box and interleaved with special paper to keep it in excellent condition. Ask your drycleaner for what they suggest is the best way to store your dress.
