Suggestions for getting icing out of a silk shirt?

Someone here in the office suggested club soda.

Edit: Dry cleaners it is! Thanks, everyone.

silk is touchy. I think club soda is a BAD idea. If it's washable silk, you could just try washing the entire blouse in warm water and mild detergent at home. If it doesn't come out, or if it's not hand-washable, you'll have to visit the dry-cleaners.

I think that depends on if it is a fat-based icing (butter or vegetable shortning), or just a sugar-and-water number. The latter will be easier; should just wash out. Fat on silk is a problem, and probably will need a trip to the dry cleaner.
