I can't help but wash my costumes when I get them used. Just a gentle hand wash in the tub with a special detergent for delicate clothes and drip dry... worked great so far even on the most intricately beaded lycra dress. Actually for that one I went into the trouble of taking the swarowski crystals out of their settings before washing to avoid further water damage. Another problem was that the turquoise dye from the threads bled onto the mesh inserts... not a big deal, they needed to be replaced anyways. So a lot of effort, but I know it's clean now.
