Question: i have a Baby shirring princess dress that i believe is like 10 years old, and the lace (and the bustled fabric in the back) looks almost grey? Like it's definitely not white, and its definitely not that kind of buttery ivory color. I'm not sure if there's anything i can do to help it though cause the rest of the dress is red.

I guess I'm wondering if it's age that had caused it or if the dress is just like that? I bought it secondhand for dirt cheap (some of the shirring elastic needed replacing) so I'm not that concerned. I wonder though, because I've seen some older parasols of theirs that look more greyish in tone compared to the ivory parasol i have that's quite yellow in comparison. Anyone have any experience or insight on this?

Pic related is the lace on the dress compared to a white and ivory blouse from them.
