Setup, Compatibility & Care
Since this garment arrives ready to wear, no setup is required. To maintain the integrity of the floral appliqué and the structure of the zinc-blend fabric, it is highly recommended to follow these care instructions:
- Storage: Hang the skirt on a proper garment hanger to prevent creasing of the A-line layers.
- Cleaning: Given the delicate nature of the appliqué, spot cleaning is preferred. If full washing is necessary, use a gentle cycle with cold water inside a mesh laundry bag, or opt for professional dry cleaning.
- Ironing: Use a low-heat setting and press from the inside out to avoid direct heat damage to the floral details.
- Styling: Pairs best with fitted tops to balance the volume of the A-line skirt.
