How should I care for the leopard print?

To maintain the vibrancy of the leopard print, it's best to machine wash on a gentle cycle with cool water and mild detergent. Air dry and iron on a low setting on the reverse side.

Troubleshooting

Skirt loses shape after washing

Ensure you are washing on a gentle cycle with cool water and air-drying the garment. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric.

Zipper is difficult to fasten or unfasten

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. If it persists, a small amount of lubricant like graphite (from a pencil) on the teeth might help.

Fabric appears dull or faded

Check that you are using a mild detergent and not washing with harsh chemicals or in hot water. Ironing on the reverse side on a low heat can also help preserve the colour.
