A Common Dry Cleaning Challenge:

We received this beautiful formal dress with a common but delicate challenge: yellowing and oxidation stains in the collar area. Stains of this type, often caused by sweat and body oils that set over time, require very specific dry cleaning care to avoid damaging the delicate fabric and embellishments (embroidery, lace, etc.). For our customers, putting their lives on hold to care for premium garments is a thing of the past.

Our Expert Care Treatment:

At Woshbox, we don't just ‘clean’ your clothes; we restore them. For this dress, our process included three key steps of premium garment care (dry cleaning):

Assessment: We identified the exact type of stain and fabric fiber.

Spot Treatment: We applied a gentle stain removal solution, tested on hidden areas to ensure that the embellishments were not affected.

Final Cleaning: We used our eco-friendly dry cleaning process, followed by professional ironing to restore the dress's impeccable drape and shape.

The Result (The “After”)

Impeccable, FRESH, and Flawless!

As you can see in the “After” photo, the dress has been brought back to life. The rust stains are completely gone, leaving the white fabric and lace as bright as the day it was purchased. This is the level of expert care we pride ourselves on offering, combined with the convenience of our free pickup and delivery service in Winston-Salem and Clemmons.
