Troubleshooting

Skirt loses shape after washing

Ensure the garment is only dry cleaned as per care instructions. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, which can distort the fabric and structure.

Buttons appear loose or damaged

Carefully check button fastenings. If loose, consider having them professionally re-secured by a tailor. Avoid excessive force when buttoning or unbuttoning.

Fabric has creases that are difficult to remove

Following dry cleaning, iron on a low heat setting, preferably inside out or with a pressing cloth. Ensure the skirt is properly hung to allow creases to fall out naturally.

Gold-tone buttons tarnish

Gently polish the buttons with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh cleaning agents that could damage the finish.
