Is it an old wedding dress? Or a new one? If it is a new one, just let your wedding planner or designer or simple wedding dress sewer to make a new lace for you. But if it is an old dress and you just want to restore its original color, then try bleaching. If you want a home made bleach, you can try mixing the following Ingredients, mix them together and use one cup per washing cycle:
- 1 ½ cup 3% hydrogen peroxide
- ½ cup lemon juice
- Distilled water to fill a gallon jug
- 10 - 12 drops lemon essential oil

∙ 9y agoTo keep you wedding dress fresh and white for years it's best to take it to a special dry cleaners to have your wedding dress cleaned and they will seal it in a vacuumed air tight box (never open the box or seal until you want to take out the dress for use.) Search around for different prices. If you cannot afford to go to a professional dry cleaners then you can use those vacuum packed air tight plastic clothing bags (the long ones) and use your vacuum cleaner to suck out the air and be sure the bag is sealed well.
Difference of opinion: if air cannot reach your wedding dress, it may yellow. When it comes to fabrics like dresses and quilts, allowing a small bit of air circulation is crucial. You need to store this treasure carefully so that the years do not steal any of its beauty. To best maintain its timeless grandeur, follow a few important steps posted at
New answer: DEAR GOD NO! WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP LYING ABOUT THIS!??!
NEVER NEVER NEVER vacuum seal a dress. Air is not what makes it yellow, the plastic they seal it in is what makes it yellow. No museum , no textile expert, no one ever, who knows what they are talking about will tell you to vacuum seal any textile. Airflow is what KEEPS it FROM yellowing. The chemicals in the plastic bag trap moisture, and offgas chemicals that are then trapped in the bag with the dress.
Go to the Container store, buy an acid free box with tissue for $50. Stop letting ignorance ruin your wedding dress.

Can you wear a white prom dress as a wedding dress?
If you are taking your wedding dress apart to make it look more like a prom dress then you could go simple without lace; bows; train (long part in the back of the wedding dress); no veiling at all. Keep the lines of the dress simple. If the wedding dress skirt was wide then you could take it in so it is more form fitting or leave it as it is without wearing the crinoline that went underneath the wedding dress. If you don't have a wedding dress and you don't want it to look like one then off the shoulder is becoming to a young woman (sleeveless of course) and it can be form fitting or have soft veiling from the waist to the ankles and most young women of today wear soft colors to their prom and not generally white.

I am having a wedding in couple years and my wedding dress is white and camouflage what color would look good for the braid maid to wear?
I have seen bridesmaids wear royal blue, each dress in the style they choose. If you have a spring or summer wedding, perhaps a pastel will be nice. However, with a pastel, you need to check and see what colors look good on your bridesmaids so they do not fade out.
