Cleaning pet stains from a ball gown requires special attention, in order to avoid further damage. Fortunately, our team of experts have created a few simple steps to help you out.

Step 1: Blotting the Stain

First, use a white cloth or paper towels to gently blot the stain and absorb as much of the moisture as possible. Avoid scrubbing or rubbing the stain, as this can cause it to spread, making it more difficult to remove.

Step 2: Pre-Treat Stain

Mix a solution of equal parts warm water and white vinegar. Use a sponge or cloth to apply the mixture to the stain and lightly rub it in. Allow the solution to sit for 15 minutes before rinsing with cold water.

Step 3: Clean Ball Gown

Fill a bucket with cold water and add a few drops of mild detergent. Submerge the gown and let it soak for at least 10 minutes. Gently squeeze fabric to help loosen the stain, but do not scrub or wring the fabric.

Step 4: Rinse

After the gown has soaked and the stain is removed, use cool water to rinse any remaining soap residue. Allow the ball gown to air-dry completely before storing.

Step 5: Repeat if Necessary

If the stain doesn’t come out after these steps, repeat the process until it does. If the stain remains, consider taking the gown to a professional cleaner for assistance.

Conclusion

Getting pet stains out of your ball gown doesn’t have to be stressful. With a little bit of patience, following these easy steps you can once again enjoy stain-free, beautiful elegance.
