Because I tend to buy whatever used costume i find in sale in Greece lol (for the purpose of having a big guardarobe for my students and troup) there are 2 cases:
a) I wash them, checking first for beads colour if the colour get off, etc, very genlte as it is descirbed above.
b) yes i do replace the linen (and to make it educational, once in a while we have a small "recovering/fixin costumes workshop" with the studends that actualy will use the costumes.
