What if I’m Out and About?
If you’re out and about and you’ve already got a few berry stains on your midi dress, you may have a hard time removing them. In this case, you can always try blotting at the stain with a damp cloth or a paper towel. If you’re lucky, this could help remove some of the berry stain. However, it won’t be enough to get rid of all of the stain.
How to Remove Berry Stains From Midi Dresses at Home
At home, you’ll have access to a few more resources that will help you remove berry stains from your midi dress. The first step is to soak the stained area of the midi dress in warm water for up to 30 minutes. This will help loosen the stain from the fabric. Then, apply a small amount of laundry detergent directly to the stain. Gently rub the detergent into the fabric, then rinse it off with warm water. Finally, launder the midi dress in a washing machine and hang dry it.
What if the Stain Still Won’t Come Out?
If berry stain is still there after following the steps above, you may need to use an oxygen-based bleach.

Once you’ve spot tested, you can apply bleach directly to the stain and let it sit for up to 30 minutes. Finally, launder the midi dress in a washing machine and hang dry it.
Conclusion
Berry stains can be unsightly, but they don’t have to ruin your midi dress. With a few easy steps, you can easily remove even the toughest berry stains from your midi dress.
