I would love to hear from my seasoned experts here, but here are my own thoughts: On some fabrics where it hasn't completely infiltrated the fabric, some perspiration staining can sometimes be soaked out, but what I think you are looking at here with a wool rayon blend is permanent lightening of the fabric, so it is not so much a stain to be removed but the effects of a sort of chemical reaction that cannot be reversed per se. You could perhaps consider having a professional look at it (drycleaner) or you could look into the possibility of trying to dye the whole dress another color with an appropriate fabric dye (not something I've ever done) OR if you are a talented seamstress, you could explore ways of replacing the discolored areas (if they are very conspicuous when the dress is worn). Otherwise, you may have to think of creative ways to wear the dress with separates that cover the areas (though often isolated and mild discoloration under the arms is not glaringly visible when a dress is worn, especially in an evening setting ;))BaronessVonVintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09329735134543431231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5465295746865231888.post-25942360844665448802010-08-25T23:23:15.612-04:002010-08-25T23:23:15.612-04:00Thank you so much for your quick and kind reply.
