Removing Fresh Pet Stains from Silk Dresses
The best way to get rid of fresh pet stains on silk dresses is to act quickly. First, gently blot away as much of the stain as possible with a soft, dry cloth. Then, create a solution of one part warm water and one part white vinegar. Using a soft cloth or sponge, gently dab the mixture onto the stain. Be careful not to scrub, as this could damage fabric. Rinse stain with cool water and let it air dry.
Removing Set-In Pet Stains from Silk Dresses
If the pet stain has already set into the fabric, there are a few different methods you can use. Start by mixing equal parts water and liquid dish soap together in a bowl. Dip a soft cloth into the mixture and gently dab it onto the stain. Rinse the stain with cool water and repeat as necessary. If this doesn’t work, you can also try using a mixture of three parts hydrogen peroxide and one part dish soap. Again, be sure to rinse fabric thoroughly with cool water. Another option is to apply a small amount of rubbing alcohol to the stain and then rinse. As a last resort, you can take the dress to a professional dry cleaner.
