Troubleshooting
Fabric appears wrinkled after storage
Use a garment steamer on a low, gentle setting, keeping the nozzle at least six inches away from the material.
Hemline catching on floor surface
Ensure you are wearing appropriate heel height to elevate the hem, or use clear fabric-safe hem tape for temporary adjustments if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your garment, adhere to the following guidelines:
- Storage: Hang the skirt using the provided internal loops on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the waistband and prevent stretching.
- Cleaning: Given the delicate nature of the waterfall hem and the structured fabric, professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the fabric's sheen and internal lining alignment.
- Styling Compatibility: Works best with fitted tops or bodysuits that won't create bulk around the waistline. Avoid chunky sweaters or oversized tops which may detract from the flare of the hip profile.
- Travel: If packing for an event, fold the skirt gently with acid-free tissue paper between layers to minimize creasing in the compact stretch material.
