I usually roll all my packables and it is a great thing -- especially good for pants. I could almost roll this dress but am too chicken. My plan is to stuff the dress lightly with tissue and hang in a dry cleaning bag. Then sort of billow out the bag so it has air and tie at the bottom to keep the dress sort of protected in a bubble (<I>Queer Eye</I> trick). Then the men's wool suit to will be added to the garment bag for heft. Wish us luck! Thanks for the suggestions! I usually roll all my packables and it is a great thing — especially good for pants.

Start at the bottom of the dress and roll it into itself until you reach the top, so you end up with a long tube of a dress?! You know what, don't listen to me. This sounds more nonsensical written down than in my head. Have a fab trip!

Also, consider packing it with the gent's suits so it is a little protected by the woolens, perhaps? Have a great time! :o) I don’t know if the organza is too delicate for hotel irons (or if there are complimentary irons at the hotel where you’ll be staying)., but I think the garment bag is a great idea.
