Troubleshooting

Skirt doesn't lay flat when wrapped

Ensure the internal tie is secured correctly and the outer wrap is aligned evenly before fastening the buckle. Gentle steaming can also help the fabric relax into the correct drape.

Buckle feels loose or is difficult to fasten

Check that the buckle prongs are properly aligned with the corresponding holes in the fabric. Ensure no threads are caught in the buckle mechanism.

Crease marks from storage

Hang the skirt immediately upon arrival. If creases persist, use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric, protecting the material with a pressing cloth if necessary.
