I have a beautiful vintage wedding gown for my upcoming wedding. Although the dress is in good condition it will need to be cleaned and altered. Which should I do first? I worry about fingerprints and the like if I clean it before alterations. I worry about dirty hems being sewn into the gown if it do the alterations first. Have any of you dealt with this. Do the tailor's ware gloves and I dont need to worry?
Clean it first, you may find that the cleaning didn't get out what you wanted, and then you are out all your alteration costs if you did them first - Plus, if something happens (say some beading or a button comes off) - you can have your seamstress fix that with the rest of the alterations.
If you have a good seamstress, she won't touch your gown before washing her hands! My seamstress has a separate sewing room that no one goes past the threshold but her. She lays plastic on the floor and then washes her hands well before starting on a gown.
