My wedding dress was made of peau de soie and was lined with a cloth like paper lining. I was married in 1964. Later my dress was in a basement and it got flooded. I thought it was ruined and never did anything about it. Since my 50th anniversary I became brokenhearted about it and I am researching for a way to save it.
