Scrape as much of the dried polish as you can off using your fingernail or the edge of a credit card.

Then use non-acetate fingernail polish remover to get the colour (if any, not all nail polish stains when colouring your nails or anything else) out of the fabric. Non-acetate remover won't eat the cotton fibers.

If you do have some colour staining from the polish after you've used the remover, about the only thing left to do is either leave the mark as a memory (for example if a child or grandchild was playing dress up for the first time), or cover it with either embroidery or a patch of fabric applied as an applique.

Okay so I read this online for nail glue so it might work for nail polish. Take a cotton ball put nail polish remover on it and rub the fabric and try to scrape it off with your nail as best as you can.

Repeat a couple time then wash it and then hang it up don't dry it because the heat will harden it and it will be like impossible to get it out then.

I would think just nail polish remover would work...
