Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this skirt is made of wool, proper care is essential to extend its lifespan. For styling, it works best with tucked-in tops to showcase the high waistband and fold details.
Care Instructions:
- Dry Clean Only: Due to the tailored nature and wool composition, avoid machine washing to prevent shrinkage or loss of shape.
- Storage: Always hang the skirt on a proper skirt hanger to prevent creases. Use cedar or lavender sachets if storing for extended periods to protect the wool.
- De-wrinkling: If the fabric develops minor wrinkles from sitting, use a handheld garment steamer from a safe distance, or allow it to hang in a steam-filled bathroom briefly.
