Can I machine wash or hand wash this skirt?

What does 'fil coupé' mean?

Troubleshooting
Skirt appears creased after storage.
Arrange for professional dry cleaning. A cool iron may be used with extreme caution on the fabric, avoiding direct heat on metallic elements or lace.
Detachable belt is difficult to attach or detach.
Ensure the belt buckle is correctly aligned with the belt holes. If stiff, try gently flexing the belt material. Avoid forcing the buckle.
Lace inserts look snagged or pulled.
Handle with care to avoid further snags. Professional dry cleaning may be able to address minor imperfections. Prevent contact with sharp objects or rough surfaces.
