Removing Mud from a Satin Dress?

I have a beautiful blue satin dress that I wore to two proms in a row. At the second one (last night) I got a little bit of mud on the very bottom of the skirt. Is there any way I can remove it?

Hi,

I would use the blotting method. Put some detergent in a bowl of water and mix it. Take a cloth, wet it, with the detergent solution, and blot the stain until it is gone. At this point, let the satin dry.

I found a helpful website that you might find has some ideas:

Have a wonderful and blessed day!

Brush off as much mud as possible. Then mix mild detergent and water. Using the suds only, remove the remaining mud.

Satin is notorious for leaving "circles" or stains when water is applied so be very careful and only blot with a damp cloth (satin can also stretch so do not scrub or pull).

I would suggest using a detergent that specifies satin on the label (such as Woolite).

Here are a couple of links that show easy step by step instructions.
