Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and not over-agitating during hand washing. Rinse thoroughly. A fabric softener designed for wool may help restore softness.

Print appears faded or damaged.

This can occur from improper washing or drying. Avoid harsh detergents, high heat, and direct sunlight during drying. For significant damage, professional restoration may not be feasible for printed fabric.

Cover-up is too long.

As a maxi length item, alterations may be necessary if the length is not suitable. Consult a professional tailor for hemming.
