Troubleshooting

Skirt feels too tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the provided size chart. If the skirt is new, the stretch fabric may relax slightly with wear. Consider pairing with looser-fitting tops.

Zipper is difficult to operate.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently work the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax can help smooth its operation.

Colour fading after washing.

Wash the skirt inside out in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh detergents and excessive agitation. Ensure proper drying methods are followed, avoiding direct sunlight.

Fabric pilling or stretching out of shape.

Follow the recommended washing and drying instructions carefully. Avoid high heat drying, which can damage the fabric's elasticity. Consider hand washing for delicate care.
