Whitening a Dry Clean Only Pants Suit?

I have an ivory white pant suit that has yellowed badly, how do I clean it? The long sleeve jacket is 100% linen, with a white silk lining, and the pants are 60% linen and 40% rayon. I have put them in the cleaners, and nothing. It says dry clean only but, that is not helping at all. Please help me.

You can't bleach rayon or silk.....and rayon is a synthetic... I have never been able to get yellowing out of a fabric without using bleach, and this you can't bleach. Rayon also doesn't take dye well, so I doubt it would work to use a dye remover. You may not be able to get it out. If it were able to come out, I would think the dry cleaners would have been able to get it.

You can't whiten synthetic materials like rayon. Why don't you try dying it a nice cream color?
