Troubleshooting
Visible wrinkles in the satin fabric
Use a garment steamer on a low setting or iron the reverse side using a pressing cloth to avoid direct heat damage.
Zipper feels stiff or stuck
Gently rub a lead pencil or a bar of soap along the zipper teeth to lubricate them, ensuring the fabric is pulled taut and away from the track.
Static cling affecting the drape
Use a light spritz of anti-static spray on the inside lining or rub a small amount of body lotion on your legs before dressing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your skirt in pristine condition, always consult the internal care label. Because this garment is crafted from satin, it is recommended to dry clean the piece or hand wash it in cold water with a gentle detergent to avoid damaging the delicate weave. Avoid using high heat settings during ironing; if wrinkles occur, a low-heat steam or pressing through a protective cloth is advised. In terms of compatibility, this UK size 8 skirt is best suited for those who appreciate a standard fit at the natural waist. It stores best when hung on a skirt hanger with padded clips to avoid permanent creasing or fabric marking.
