Weddingbee boards

There are other posts on this topic on the boards here, from them and the internet, I learned that a plastic garmet bag is not a good way to store a dress (which makes me wonder why David's sold me one) because it can't breathe and trapped moisture could lead to mildew. The word mildew was enough to convince me to buy a new garmet bag. I read that canvas or another natural, non dyed fiber is the best. I ordered a large garmet bag from the container store since my dress has a long train and needs to be stored until September 2010. Aparently it is best to store dresses folded in a box, not on the hanger if storing for more than 6 months but mine is too bulky for that. In reality, I'm sure it would be jut finei n the plastic bag but I didn't want to risk it since it is being stored at my parents' house and I won't see it until one week before the wedding.
