So sorry for your loss. Some dry cleaners have a service that can seal your dress for storage. They do this for wedding dresses, and could do it for any dress.

Sorry that happened. A wedding dress preserving service or a dry cleaner can give you the best advice, they seal it up in a bag so no air can get in and cause yellowing or anything else. Make sure your family knows your wishes. You'll have to make sure not to "outgrow" the dress or you'll look like a sausage.

Contact your local dry cleaner and ask about purchasing a box or bag that will preserve the dress. PLEASE don't be planning on joining your son any time soon. To everything there is a season and a time for every purpose under the sun.
