help! picked up my dress, but wedding in 17 months

Help! I bought my dress at Kleinfelds ata final sale, so i had to bring my dress home with me, they don't hold it that long because it is a sample. My problem however is that my wedding isnt for another 17months. how to i care for the dress in the mean time? I got 5 different responces from them over there each including using a white cotton sheet. soem said to hang, some said to lay flat, some said to keep in a box some said in the garment bag. some said under the bed. I just want my dress to stay nice please help me.

Maybe call a place that does gown preservation and see what they say.

I would even call a bridal salon or a dry cleaner and have the gown perserved. If you go through a bridal salon, they will sharge you probably $300, maybe alittle less. If you go to a dry cleaner, they'll charge you about $150. The one dry cleaner by my mom charged us $150 for it to be cleaned, preserved and put it a clear box.
