Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your wool skirt in optimal condition, always check the interior garment care label before cleaning. Due to the wool-blend composition, professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the fabric's shape and texture. If the skirt becomes wrinkled, use a garment steamer on a low setting, keeping distance from the fabric to prevent scorching. Store the skirt on a skirt hanger with padded clips to avoid permanent indentations on the waistband. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or damp environments to prevent fiber degradation.
