Troubleshooting

Fabric loses its sheen

Ensure you are following the recommended dry cleaning instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or high heat when ironing.

Skirt appears too long

The skirt is designed to be worn with heels. If still too long, consider professional tailoring for hemming.

Creases are difficult to remove

Use a low-heat iron with a pressing cloth on the reverse side of the fabric. Steaming can also help relax stubborn creases.
