Troubleshooting

Skirt does not hang straight

Ensure the skirt is properly ironed according to care instructions. If pleats are uneven, gently refold and press them. Ensure it is hung on a suitable hanger when not in use.

Fabric appears creased after wear

Viscose blends can crease. Try steaming the skirt or ironing on a low heat setting. Consider wearing shapewear or a slip underneath for a smoother appearance.

Fit around the waist is too tight/loose

This skirt features a structured high waist. Consider using a belt to cinch the waist for a tighter fit, or pair with looser tops that drape over the waistband. For significant fit issues, consult a tailor.
