No matter why you want to store them, make sure they are just as beautiful when you take them out of long-term storage! Don’t just throw them in a drawer and forget about them. Take your time to fold them carefully and wrap each fold in acid-free tissue paper. You’ll be able to keep your garment wrinkle-free and keep dust, dirt, and bugs away from your fabrics. Worried about moisture? Add some moisture-absorbing packets to really soak up all that humidity and keep your silk nice and dry.

I mean, the fearsome four: sunlight, moisture, constraint, and bugs!
