FAQs
Is the feather trim machine washable?
No. The feather trim is delicate and should be removed before cleaning the skirt. Professional dry cleaning is recommended for the skirt itself.
What does 'cut on the bias' mean?
It means the fabric is cut at a 45-degree angle to the grain, which allows the material to drape over the body with more fluidity and stretch.
Can I wear this skirt without the feathers?
Yes, the feather trim is specifically designed to be removable, allowing you to switch between an embellished and minimalist look.
How should I store this garment?
Store hanging on a padded hanger in a cool, dry closet. Avoid overcrowding the garment to prevent the feathers from being crushed.
Is the fabric prone to wrinkling?
Due to the bias-cut design and high-quality construction, the skirt maintains its shape well, though some light steaming may be needed after long periods of storage.
Troubleshooting
The zip feels tight or catches.
Ensure the skirt is properly aligned on your body and check for fabric snagging. Never force the zipper; pull the fabric slightly away from the track while zipping.
Feathers look flattened or messy.
Gently shake the trim to fluff the feathers. If necessary, use a cool-air hairdryer on a low setting held at a distance to restore volume.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the skirt for wear, carefully inspect the feather trim attachment points to ensure they are secure. When dressing, use the concealed back zip gently to avoid catching the fabric in the teeth. For long-term care, it is essential to store the skirt on a proper padded hanger to prevent the bias-cut fabric from distorting. Due to the combination of fine textiles and natural feathers, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to preserve the finish and prevent crushing the feather trim. Avoid direct exposure to prolonged sunlight to keep the pastel colour vibrant.
