The first step is to remove the wildflowers that are on the dress. Be very careful not to smear sap or petals into fabric. Using tweezers, remove any blooms and leaves that you can. Make sure to place these away from the stain to avoid spreading it.
Next, you'll want to soak the dress in cold water for 30 minutes or so. This will help to loosen the stain from the fabric. It's important to use cold water, as hot water can set the stain.
After soaking, treat the stain with an oxygen-based bleach. Follow the instructions on the package, as each type of oxygen-based bleach has specific instructions. Generally, this will involve mixing the oxygen-based bleach with water, then applying it to stain. Let it sit on the stain for 15 to 20 minutes, then rinse off.
Once you're done treating the stain with oxygen-based bleach, launder item as directed by its care instructions. This should help to remove any remaining wildflower stains.
With just a few simple steps, you can easily remove wildflower stains from your maxi dress. So go ahead, wear your dress with confidence—you know how to tackle the stains like a pro!
