Troubleshooting

Skirt feels too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have selected your correct size (this model is Size 16 UK). While it is a form-fitting design with an elasticated waist, if it feels restrictive, check the stretch capacity of the fabric and consider if a different size might be more suitable. It is designed to be 'True to size' with a 'Regular fit'.

Fabric appears creased after washing.

As a stretch jersey blend, the fabric might be prone to some wrinkling. Remove from the washing machine promptly after the cycle ends. Line dry or tumble dry on low, and consider a light iron on a low setting to smooth out creases.

Animal print seems faded or dull.

To preserve the vibrancy of the textured animal print, always wash the skirt inside out and use a color-safe detergent. Avoid excessive exposure to direct sunlight during drying, which can sometimes cause fading over time.
