MissHannah said:Has anyone come across the mysterious rust-coloured vintage dust before?! I've got a vintage nylon jacket/top with a real fur collar and it is emitting said strange dust and I can't tell where the dust is coming from - the fabric or the fur. This has happened to me before with something vintage but i can't remember which garment. Has anybody else had this experience? Maybe I should just take it to the dry cleaners and see what they say.
On the ebay vintage board they call it devil's dust. Nothing to be done I'm afraid - you have to toss it. I have tossed a pair of boots I didn't notice it on. I just abandon buying anything with it on there. I really don't think it's good for you to be in contact with/ breathe. Now that's just what I learned from the folks over there, but they know their stuff on the whole.
