There are those that will tell you there's nothing there.[8D] But I do know something about drycleaning. I was a neat freak about gowns and preservation. Before I'd touch them I'd wash and rinse my hands with baking soda and all that. I wouldn't do them until I changed filters, new fluid. No one would touch them except me. I used all the acid free boxes and unbleached muslim wrapsand tissues from the Smithsonian supplier in NY. When I finished it I demanded immediate pick up to remove it from a hostile envioronment of a cleaners or I took it home to the AC area. I had people come a long ways to give me their gowns. Depending on the gown, it might cost you some bucks.[8D]
