How does mydressbox work?
It’s simple. Just buy the MyDressbox that best describes your wedding dress style and condition. We’ll send you a box with a prepaid courier ticket. Put the dress in the box and adhere the pre-paid label, take it to your nearest AusPost and they'll give you a receipt with the tracking. We’ll then take out, clean, steam and return your wedding dress to you in a MyDressbox which is suitable for storage!
What size MyDressbox should I choose?
Typically speaking, our advice here is 'go with your instinct'! Most customers choose regular MyDressbox, but you'll have a good feeling if your dress is Light (e.g. a short, summer style) or Extra (very layered, or particularly soiled). You can Message us on Facebook with a photo of your dress if you're unsure! :-)
