I've never worked with silk organza before and I'm curious as to what I can expect from the pre-washing
Urgh, I wouldn't unless you want it softer. Washing organza takes all the silk starchy stuff out and makes it soft. If you want to retain the stiffness iron it with steam (or do what I do, spray water on it with a spray bottle and iron with a dry iron).
