As she is my first WS DD, I don't want her getting stained like poor Glenda seems to be. From what I hear, the outfit ( dress ) isn't the problem, it's the underwear and stockings/garters that stain a lot. It seems the dress is lined in a material that is dark but doesn't stain. Billy Hmmm.. Git a Azone garter and stocking combo that I've has a spare hand stuffed into (that sounds dirty and so far no stains.. Will try those instead...

vegablack Posted August 14, 2013 The ribbons that attach to the neck piece of my Alter v2's dress stained her so I'd be careful if those too.

Katiazza Posted August 30, 2013 Can anyone tell me what Melty's default outfit is like for staining? I plan on washing the black parts (so pretty much everything...) in a lingerie bag before I use them, but are there any pieces in particular that are really bad for staining? I don't really like body stockings but I'll use one if I have to. I know I've seen a few owners who have kept her in her default for a while and I don't think I've seen any staining but I know Volks can sometimes make questionable choices when it comes to fabric that can (and will) stain. *Yuzu* DDS Yaya *Yuuko* DDIII Aozaki Aoko *Sakura* DDII Uryuu Sakuno Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I left my Melty's default on for about five months after she arrived withoit washing it first. I know others had trouble with the red bow on her collar staining her neck and chin, so I tried to keep it from touching her. I checked on her socks every so often and didn't see any problems. When I decided to change her she had no marks on her torso or legs. There were just light marks on her arms, which I found odd since her legs were fine and they were the same material. The marks weren't too bad though, and they've since faded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Follow-up on the Evening Waltz Peacock Blue set: Stockings, armwarmers, dress, corset skirt, and necklace are all SAFE! Had Agatha in the set in a warm room for three months straight with no problems. Only thing I'm not sure on is the neck ribbon on the hat, as I only put that on her a couple of times. (Was too much trouble to get it to stay put through posing compared to how it looked on her.) In this household, sanity is considered a tresspasser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does anyone know about the pants that come with the balloon dress set? I know they're denim and I probably won't use them much but should I be worried about trying them on her? *Yuzu* DDS Yaya *Yuuko* DDIII Aozaki Aoko *Sakura* DDII Uryuu Sakuno Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baldylox Posted September 3, 2013 I finally have a question for this thread! I have this outfit sans boots: http://www.volksusa.com/ofkor20110207.html Do those dark stockings stain? The material doesn't have the regular feel of Volks items that I know stain but I'm leery to put them on any of my girls for any length of time without being sure. Does anyone own this set and know? Thanks in advance for any help! Billy I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As well as two other outfits that use the exact same material as this one does for the stockings (but as leggings) http://www.volksusa.com/ofkor20120305.html http://www.volksusa.com/ofkor20120802.html I've never had any of these outfits on my girls without a body stocking to be honest. So I can't tell you for certain. They didn't leave any marks on the body stocking - I've had some outfits that have - but I always err on the side of caution.

baldylox Posted September 3, 2013 Thank you PF and Beth! I was kind of worried about those stockings since they're dark and thick.... plenty of potential for stains. I'm glad to know they aren't an issue tho, that makes me happy. Billy I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
