I do not know if it might stain your fabric, but there is an old time remedy
that speaks of moistening the fold with white vinegar which is applied with
a rough wash cloth,,,then press it gently while it is still damp. I have had
some luck doing this in the past.

Subject: [h-cost] folds in silk taffeta
I have started to embroider a new custom made waistcoat.
I received the silk taffeta it is going to be made from about 1 year ago.
It was folded down into a little square.
Today i prepared it to be patterned with the embroidery, steam ironed it
on both sides, but the folds are still visible.
Is there a chance that those folds will disappear in time? Maybe when i
stretch it to my embroidery frame?
