Silk smell?

Has anyone found a way to remove the sour milk smell out of washable silk clothing?? I have two shirts that I love but they have this very offensive smell to it! I have found that ALL washable silk have this odor. I've tried washing it in Febreeze, but it comes right back again. Any suggestions?

    Try contacting a dry cleaner.. I think truly silk clothing was supposed to be dry cleaned anyway.
