In this regard, what is the best way to get wrinkles out of a graduation gown?
Since most graduation gowns are made of polyester, ironing directly on it can melt the fabric. Turn the gown inside out and place a white towel over the fabric and iron over the towel on the warm setting. Try not to hold the iron in one spot for too long to prevent scorching.
Can you put graduation gown in dryer?
The heat of a machine dryer can easily damage or melt the fabric of a graduation gown, so don't use a dryer to remove wrinkles and creases. You can use an iron, but you need to make sure it's set to low heat with steam.
