Dear Constant Reader,
Today’s tip was inspired by the great David Lynch. “She’s dead, wrapped in plastic.”
Do not store your costumes in dry cleaning bags.
If you were obsessed by Twin Peaks, as I was, I hope you thought fondly of that iconic line.
Dry cleaning bags are just supposed to provide temporary protection to get your clothes home safely. Used long term, they can cause discoloration, especially yellowing, and can trap moisture. Don’t kill your costumes…
You’re much better off ditching the bag once you get home (and taking it somewhere that recycles plastic film) and storing your costume wrapped in a fabric made of natural fiber, like cotton.
