Troubleshooting

Pleats losing their shape

Gently reshape the pleats while the skirt is damp after washing and allow it to air dry flat. Steaming can also help restore pleats.

Fabric appears creased after storage

Use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric or a garment steamer to remove creases. Ensure the skirt is fully dry before storing.

Button detail feels loose

Carefully examine the button attachment. If loose, consider reinforcing the stitching with a needle and thread.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Due to the tweed fabric and tailored pleats, it is recommended to hand wash or use a gentle cycle on your washing machine with cold water.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent suitable for cotton fabrics.
  • Drying: Avoid tumble drying. Lay the skirt flat on a clean towel or drying rack to air dry, reshaping the pleats gently while damp.
