Troubleshooting
Pleats losing their shape
Gently reshape the pleats while the skirt is damp after washing and allow it to air dry flat. If necessary, a cool iron can be used carefully on the reverse side.
Lace trim appears damaged
Inspect the lace trim for snags or tears. Avoid rough handling during washing and drying. Minor snags may be carefully mended with a fine needle and matching thread.
Skirt doesn't drape as expected
Ensure the skirt is completely dry and has been allowed to hang freely. The woven construction and lining are designed for drape, so allow it to settle into its natural form.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Due to the delicate lace trim and pleated construction, hand washing in cold water is recommended. Avoid machine washing.
