Your exquisite bridal gown is both the focus of your wedding day and the final reflection of your heart, your dreams, your style, your hopes for the future. After the marriage, capture the spirit of this special time by preserving your gown according to archival standards. The Infinity Gown Preservation Box Kit is simple to make use of, affordable, and the only way to protect your investment.
Long after the ceremony is over and your new life has begun, your gown will be a living heirloom, something to be enjoyed repeatedly, passed on to another bride, or used as part of a christening dress or bassinette.
Lace silk, satin, and other delicate fabrics require proper cleaning and archival protection or they will yellow and deteriorate. In case you cover your gown in dry-cleaning plastic and hang it in a closet, over time your dress will yellow, stretch, and create brown streaks. Environmental factors such as light, temperature, humidity, and dust as well as containers made from common plastics, cardboard boxes, and glues are harmful to special textiles. "Preserving" your gown in sealed bags or boxes also causes permanent damage over time. Because textiles fabrics require the need to "breathe", fabrics ought to not be sealed in airtight plastic bags to prevent damage from moisture condensation. Since some plastics give off fumes as they decompose, bridal gowns ought to not come in direct contact with them.
Dry-cleaners and retailers offer ways to "preserve" bridal gowns and other precious textiles, but not all are archivally appropriate.
Infinity Gown Preservation Kits include:
The museum-quality Bridal Gown Preservation Box provides the safest surroundings for your gown. Room to accommodate the proper interleaving and "rolding" necessary to prepare a gown for long-term storage, made from materials engineered to best deal with the special needs of textiles, and covered with a stylish monogrammed cotton cover whose elegance is matched only by its efficient reduction of light exposure, dust, and static electricity (all harmful for your gown). Our box does not seal your dress away in a cardboard box with a window like many of other "preservation" boxes.
