The cost of our exclusive preservation service for most dresses ranges from $395.00 to $795.00, depending upon the condition and construction of the dress and the complexity of the assignment. Our price includes the preliminary inspection, cleaning, and repairs, as well as the return of your dress in our special long-term storage box with archival-quality preservation packing materials. It also covers shipping and insurance from the time it leaves your hands until we return it to you.

The exact price is determined by the intricacy of the dress construction and the cleaning and restoration problems it presents. For a quick guideline to how we arrive at the cost of preserving your dress, consider these points:

• Does it have a very full or layered skirt?
• Does it have a cathedral train?
• Is it heavily beaded or embroidered?
• Are there areas that are heavily padded?
• Are there any noticeable spills or tears?
• Is the fabric more than forty years old?

Call us at (800) 448-7291 and we will provide you with a precise estimate for the preservation of your dress. We also offer an extensive array of restorative services, in addition to our basic service, for which we will gladly provide estimates.
