Packing your clothes is always one of the challenges of travelling. It even gets more challenging when you're flying back to the city where you grew up to attend a homecoming party because you need to make sure that your dress is in top shape. But what if your homecoming dress gets wrinkled despite all your efforts? Don't worry! Here are some practical tips to ensure your dress is in great condition again for the homecoming dance.


A hot shower in the bathroom

No, we don't mean getting your dress wet! Hanging your dress in a closed bathroom, whether at home or in a hotel room, while the hot shower is running can do wonders in removing those wrinkles. Just wait 15 minutes or so. To make the most of your time, you can do this while you actually take a shower. Just make sure to avoid water splashes on your dress.


Put it in the dryer

The machine can be used to remove wrinkles on dresses, but be sure to check the label of your dress first. Some fabrics are safe to be in the dryer while others are not.


Use a garment steamer or steam iron

These units are designed to remove wrinkles on most fabrics, especially the delicate ones. It may take some time for the garment steamer to heat up before you can use it on your dress. If you're staying in a hotel, ask a housekeeping staff if they can provide hand steamers to guests.


A hair dryer can work wonders too

The heat from the hair dryer can help remove any wrinkle on your dress. Unfortunately, it may take a more significant time to do this with a hair dryer compared to the actual garment steamer. Most hotels have hair dryers in their guest rooms as part of the amenities.


Book a dry cleaning service

Perhaps the easiest way to remove wrinkles is to entrust it to the professionals, especially when you have a hectic schedule. They have the knowledge and skills to handle any kind of dry cleaning tasks whatever the kind of clothing or fabric you have. Make sure though that you'll get back your dress before the homecoming dance.
