Will a princess party dress dry faster hanging inside, by a window, over an A/C vent or outside, in the direct sun with ungodly humidity?

Ah, but the corresponding princess will be home in an hr and want her dress :).

Erk. That does make it more difficult.

I usually involve our princess in the princess-laundering. It gives a nice Cinderella-feel to the proceedings... ;)

In front of the A/C vent, definitely.

dear princess,

Your laundry wench had a bit of trouble with a rainstorm and a healthy fear of lightening (i should tell you that you might want to consider this threat real, since even your daddy knows i was struck, and lived to tell the tale).

Therefore the Queen took it upon herself to wash the dress, and it will take a bit of doing before it's dry despite her consulting with the myrad of admirers you have.

Love,

The fairy frog-mother

blowdrier, when desperate. Squeeze first with towels, then blowdry moving drier quickly, until mostly but not wholly dry. Should not shrink since not fully dry. Good luck.
